A member asked:
Theres red blotches on the inside of my top lip and they are like burns and making my lips puffy. could this be an allergic reac.? to my mouth wash?

Hard to tell: An irritant reaction may be more likely. When this type of problem recurs, it is helpful to try removing the possible trigger (mouthwash in this case) to see if it resolves. Mucosal lesions need to be examined to help differentiate potential causes. Food, drug, cosmetic allergies/insensitivities are possible. An Allergist can help.

Yes: Use or overuse of certain mouthwashes have caused these types of lip or mouth reactions. To find out, stop using any mouth washes and if that doesn't help after a week or so, try changing toothpaste.
