[QUOTE="Mamaof5, post: 398544"] Actually, the Occupational Therapist (OT) and I talked about Pica ironically. She doesn't feel it's Pica because Wevil tends to mouth it but not eat it. I think the lipstick thing was a random normal happenning that won't be happening again. Although she does eat lip balm (I buy only the all natural stuff for the girls and myself where you can pronounce everything and it is edible because of this very issue). I use the Northern American Hemp Co products but will keep my eye out for the Burnjel Plus stuff. Anything to help get rid of this. I seriously would welcome a cold sore more so than adult cystic acne any day. VERY painful, A few weeks back I had a particularly painful lump near my mouth and accidentally banged it with my cup and holy hannah the new curse words I invented that day. I think Wevil might have a borderline Pica issue. Again, she mostly mouths stuff for sensory stimuli. She doesn't swallow it, things like marbles, coins, popsicle sticks, etc. Just to feel it in her mouth like a baby puts everything to their mouth. First time she's ever eaten a whole tube of lipstick but then first time it's ever been in the house too. Normally I break out badly with makeup but seem to have found a fairly decent product that isn't doing that to me. Yet. Though, like I said, lip balms she will eat. I've even caught her chewing on paper but never swallowing it. I know quite a bit about Pica because I had a friend who had severe Pica. Rough illness to deal with, they don't want to do it but just can't seem to help themselves. [/QUOTE]
