[|Human|] My question is I have a little boy5 years old he had developed a purple ring around outter mouth and outter lips is weird I don t know what could have caused this or what it might even be should I be worried orcan you tell me have you heard about this and what it is and how do I get it to go away
[|AI|]  Hi, welcome to Chat Doctor, Purplish ring is not heard off unless you referring to bluish discoloration around the lips which is suggestive of cyanosis that is a sign of decreased oxygen content in blood. This can happen in case of some congenital heart defect in the child. It's only a possibility, so don't be alarmed. It would have been better or more informative if I could see a picture of it. Anyway, if I were you, I would consult my pediatrician as these things are best seen and judged. Hope I answered your query. Hope your child gets well soon. Take care.
