Whenever i take nicotine (either through gum or spray) i instantly feel my lip tingling as if i'm about to get a cold sore. why is this?

Nicotine reaction: You may have an allergic reaction to nicotine gum or spray. Tingling lips could be symptomatic of other medical conditions. See your pcp for proper diagnosis and guidance re continuing nicotine gum or spray. Hope this helps.
