A member asked:
What would a purple spot on the lip be? it is flat and somewhat faint...but has been there for about a month. is this something to be concerned about
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely not: If you are otherwise healthy, this spot is likely due to a benign process such as blood vessel proliferation or sun damage. Have your primary care doc take a look at it, especially if it enlarges or becomes irregularly colored or shaped.
