It doesnt really bother her but it doesnt look right for me so it would be really helpfull if you could help me.
Thanks

Answer
I am not a veterinarian and can not make a medical diagnosis over the internet.

Pigs do have allergies. Strawberries are a common culprit, leaving a blotchy rash on the lips that often lingers for several days after eating them.
