A member asked:

Over-biting of my upper lips has formed a triangle red patch on lower part of my upper lips. the skin peels off automatically and my lip color differ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Chronic trauma: This is likely due to the chronic overbite. The lips are traumatized and are trying to repair themselves, but they are traumatized over and over again.
