I have redness and inflammation around my lip line, with minor inflammation at the corners of my mouth, and slight stinging and burning. I've tried various treatments including hydrocortisone ointment, Tinactin, desonide, tacrolimus, eucrisa, and petroleum jelly lip balm, but the issue persists.

Is pain for diverticulitis always on one specific side or can it be generalized? I had diverticulitis quite a few years ago with an abscess but I don’t remember if it was one side or generalized. I don’t have a fever. I was constipated but today I have diarrhea. Cramping when I have to go to the bathroom. I am just trying to get a better picture of what I might be dealing with before I go to the ER and wait hours to see a doctor.
