What can I do about the redness and swelling above my lips?

Good morning, ma'am,

When did you first notice this?

Is it after a particular event, an exposure to an irritating product such as a cream, hair removal, food, cleanser or other?

Have you tried anything for this problem?

Would you be able to upload some well-lit images?

Thank you

Thanks for the information.

You did well with the moisturizers, especially Vaseline, which I encourage as often as necessary, including before and after going outside.

That being said, some other non-pharmacological measures could be tried if not already done:

I invite you to try these measures for the next 2 weeks. If the situation does not improve or worsens, you will need to see a doctor to properly assess the situation.

I hope that I have been helpful to you and I remain available if you have any further questions!

It is possible that it is eczema, but it is impossible to determine this beyond a doubt. It can happen on other parts of the body. At first glance, I would not recommend applying cortisone to the face without ruling out other causes with a doctor, if only as a precaution.
