Or, if you're fortunate enough to know a trumpet-playing MD, ask them about such things and you will learn that human lips are contructed of soft tissue, not muscle. Therefore, the lips are not subject to the effects of acidosis, the condition associated with increases in lactate concentration during heavy exercise arising from a separate reaction in muscle tissue, not soft tissue.
To quote my MD friend, "only rest, cold compresses or anti-inflamtory drugs like Advil will help 'tired lips'".
