Hi guys. I've had EC for about 3 years now, but I only really started to take notice (and find out what it is) about a year ago.

Anyways I've been reading quite a lot and I just want a bit more info on a link I may of found.

Some users have posted that their lips have become swollen, red or "everted". I think this may hint to EC being caused by bacteria or an allergy.


Singh who has "cured" his chellitis still remains with the issue of a swollen bottom lip. His cure I believe targeted moisturising/dryness, as opposed to bacterial infections.

Seb on the other hand who has also "cured" his lips, removed the swelling. His treatment removed bacterial infection.

IN OTHER WORDS. I have a feeling a swollen/everted lips may be a symptom of your EC being caused by bacteria or allery.
(This is ofcourse only a theory)
