What causes purple lips and mouth ulcers?

There is the appearance of cyanosis of the lips and oral ulcers, which might be associated with a deficiency in certain vitamins or trace elements. It is advised to visit a hospital to complete tests related to trace elements and electrolytes, among others. Additionally, the cyanosis of the lips also necessitates the exclusion of potential hypoxia. It is important to observe if the patient experiences chest tightness, coughing, expectoration, shortness of breath, and other symptoms. If necessary, completing a blood gas analysis to confirm whether there is hypoxia or carbon dioxide retention may be required. It’s important to maintain a balanced diet, ensuring good eating and living habits, and avoiding selective or picky eating to prevent changes or exacerbation of the condition. It is also advised to have regular follow-up visits at the hospital.
