Patch on upper lip

2018-10-09 12:20:52
I have a patch on my upper lip for quite some days now. Had gone to a dermatologist when it became red and itchy in between due to my habit of licking my lips. The redness has subsided but the patch remains. I am constantly applying coconut oil, vaseline to keep my lips moisturised. Should I be worried?
