About the Blue Lip Campaign:
PH is a rare condition where blood pressure in the lungs becomes high, leading to lack of oxygen, breathlessness, and difficulty moving around. One of the main symptoms is cyanosis, or blue lips. Although this disease is rare, the symptoms it causes can significantly impact a patient’s life.
