Question 5

for about 6 months for no reason my lips become very swollen sudden. no known food allergies. i don't know how to stop this. can you give advice why?

Accepted Answer

See allergist: If the swelling is not triggered by a specific food or drug (NSAID such as Advil (ibuprofen)  , ACEI etc) and lasts much more than 24 hours without response to antihistamine, you may have a condition known as hereditary angioedema which can be life-threatening. See allergist.

Question 6

my upper lip is swollen for no reason no pain no feeling but i can see that in mirror this condition is from past 2 years what should ido please help?

Accepted Answer

Oral surgeon: Did you mean no unpleasant feeling or no feeling in the lips. If the swelling has been there for 2 years I am assuming your dentist and pcp have evaluated it. It's most likely something benign or normal but you can get a second opinion from an oral surgeon, oral pathologist or a plastic surgeon.

Question 7

sudden swollen upper lip neurological reason?

Accepted Answer

Not sure: In general, swelling of a body part is NOT a neurological syndrome. There are few conditions like CRPS that are neurological and can cause swelling. A sudden swollen upper lip may have non-neurological causes like allergy, acute reaction, or other. You should have it checked out just to be sure.

Question 8

last night me and my wife had sex then she wanted me to eat her so i did. woke up to my upper lip swollen. is that reason why did it happen?

Accepted Answer

Lip Swelling: this may have been mechanical due to hair trauma, allergic due to secretions, lotions or sprays or even and allergy to semen. If you have not had this before with this activity try and find what was different. If it has happened before try and see what was the same.  Non-sedating anti-histamines prior may be helpful.  These include Claritin (loratadine) and Zyrtec.
