The inside of my top & bottom lips feels raw

What's that all about? I've had a funny sensation for a week, it was on the side of my tongue and the inside of my cheek initially; that went away; now it's a raw & sore type sensation in the inside of my top & bottom lips, no pain as such, just some sort of tightness. There's nothing white anywhere, no canker sores. I've used Oraldine but perhaps I should stop... I wonder if Oraldine is not what it used to be...

Been eating salt and vinegar crisps?
Pesto?
Pineapple?

If no better after the weekend show your dentist .

I've had this a few times. Always as a result of a virus. Once was probably hand, foot and mouth and the others were 'non-specific'. Always clears up on its own after a few weeks. If very sore, swilling with soluble pain killers can help.

FlibbertyGiblets it's way worse than that Sad

opticaldelusion yes I guess some sort of virus sounds about right. So weird. Eating is a bit painful so might lose a couple of pounds this bank holiday. Silver lining and all that...
