What causes red splotches on the lips, mainly around the lip border?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Local irritation: is a common cause. Be careful with what you do with your tongue!. Also, monitor for any foods you might be eating that may cause. Of note - Strawberries are known for causing " a reaction" of this sort on around lips.
