Hi there ,I posted before about having a lip biopsy for a dark patch on lower lip. It came back as benign hyper pigmentation. Very soon after I developed another dark patch under the first scar. Now I have pain in my lip ,everytime I apply lipstick I can feel it . But its not where the dark patch is. You can barely see anything where the pain is . The first biopsy left a horrible scar so I have been avoiding getting another one but this pain is really worrying me.
an you ask your GP to give you something to massage into your lip to help reduce the scarring. I had a BCC removed from my thigh which left quite a scar but Bio Oil helped tremendously. I suspect you can't use the oil on your lip but there ay be something suitable
