How to cure lips that are cracked at the corners?!
Question: How to cure lips that are cracked at the corners.?
With the change in the weather, my lips have cracked at the corners, and won't seem to heal. (I'm assuming because every time you open your mouth, the cracks re-open). Does anyone have a cure for this.? I've tried all kinds of over-the-counter lip ointments, as well as vitamin E. Thank you!Health Question & Answer

Most chapped lips are actually because the saliva has digestive enzymes that "eat" the skin on the lips. Then bacteria takes over, causing the itching and irritation. I've found that balms actually extend chapped lips conditions. The best cure I've found is applying hydrogen peroxide to the lips. Sometimes the lips are cured and silky smooth the next morning.

Vitamin A is very important for the growth and repair of the skin. See to it that your diet provides you with sufficient quantity of vitamin A. Carrots, tomatoes and green leafy vegetables are the good sources of vitamin A.
Make a vitamin rich juice by adding 1 tbsp. of water cress, carrot and spinach juice, 2 tbsp. wheat germ oil, one glass of tomato juice, and 1 tbsp. of nutritional yeast. Eat whole grains, legumes and nutritional yeast.
If home remedies do not work than it is advisable to see a dermatologist as soon as possible.Health Question & Answer

Ointments usually work, but not always. Whenever they don't work for me, I always make sure to keep the area really clean and sometimes rub a little salt water on it. Hope that helps.Health Question & Answer
