A member asked:

I've been having problems for the last few months with bumps on my top lip...no real pain that turn into white heads and skin peeling from inside lip.

Lip problem: Without seeing it, it's virtually impossible to direct you in the right direction based on the paucity of info provided. Either take a pic and send it over or see a local physician/provider who can help you further.
