My upper lip became oddly splotchy and seems to be really dry and darker than usual. It feels numb and when I run my tongue or finger over it, it feels spotty. It s been like this for a week now, and I ve tried a few lip balms but it doesn t seem to do anything. Peeling at the dry bits causes some tingling/slight burning sensation. Read some other answers below and I did suspect some mild allergy although I m not sure what it could be and whether an allergy could last more than a week as this has
Hi welcome to Chat Doctor forum.  Thanks for choosing Chat Doctor. Forum.  You have got a rough upper lip, splotchy, dark, spotty, With tingling and burning sensation.  It appears to be a fungal infection, Or as you suspect it may be an allergy to some cosmetics, or Chat Doctor.  If the allergy causing things are not stopped the allergy can continue, and may lead to infection.  I advise you to consult a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment.
