3Lip Inflammation
Another sign of Kawasaki disease is lip inflammation. The condition affects the blood flow to this area and leads to some problems, such as cracked, dry, or red lips. At the same time, other surrounding parts may also be affected. These include an extremely swollen and red tongue or oropharyngeal mucositis. As the symptom is very easy to notice, make sure to visit your healthcare provider as soon as it appears. In some cases, lip inflammation may be caused by other conditions rather than Kawasaki disease. [3]
