HOMOEOPATHIC REMEDIES FOR LIP AFFECTIONS
Lips are
a visible body part at the mouth of humans and many animals.
Lips
are soft, movable, and serve as the opening for food intake and in the
articulation of sound and speech. Human lips are a tactile sensory organ, and
can be erogenous when used in kissing and other acts of intimacy
The upper and lower lips are referred
to as the "Labium superius oris" and "Labium inferius
oris", respectively. The
juncture where the lips meet the surrounding skin of the mouth area is the vermilion border and the typically reddish area within
the borders is called the vermilion zone The vermilion border of the upper lip
is known as the cupid's bow[ The fleshy protuberance located in the
center of the upper lip is a tubercle known by various terms including the procheilon (also spelled prochilon), the
"tuberculum labii superioris", and the "labial tubercle" The vertical groove extending from the
procheilon to the nasal septum is called the philtrum.
The
skin of the lip, with three to five cellular layers, is very thin compared to
typical face skin, which has up to 16 layers. With light skin color, the lip
skin contains fewer melanocytes (cells which produce melanin pigment, which give skin its color).
Because of this, the blood
vessels appear through the skin
of the lips, which leads to their notable red coloring. With darker skin color
this effect is less prominent, as in this case the skin of the lips contains
more melanin and thus is visually darker. The skin of the lip forms the border
between the exterior skin of the face, and the interior mucous membrane of the inside of the mouth.
The
lip skin is not hairy and does not have sweat
glands. Therefore it does not have the usual protection layer of sweat and body
oils which keep the skin smooth, inhibit pathogens, and regulate warmth. For
these reasons, the lips dry out faster and become chapped more easily.
