my daughter has began her second year playing the clarinet. when she first started playing, her lips swelled and the skin around them turned red. we got med from the doctor, it didnt really help, but they did get somewhat better. they healed up this summer, but when she started marching band playing more than ever, they started swelling again. after last nights game, they are swelled bigger than ever. someone told her to try plastic reeds. but since her top lip is swollen also, i think it might be the mouthpiece. this is the 3rd mouthpiece she has had in a year but they have all been plastic. she has skin allergies and we can only use certain washing powders. do you think it might be that she is allergic to the plastic? i dont want to invest a lot of money into a crystal mouthpiece or metal.. but i will if it will help. has any one heard of this happening to anyone else? which would be better, metal or crystal???
