Avatar f tn But he has ate me out... and one time he had what looked like cracked lips... on both corners of his lips. and he ate me out... after i realized they were there it was to late... i freaked out but it was on both sides... and looked like cracked dry lips... anyways that was about 3 weeks ago.. well about a week ago i thought i had an UTI. Hard to pee. Felt like i had to pee all the time. hurt before i pee'd.
Avatar f tn At the end of March (of this year) my mouth began to crack right at the corner. I don't remember it pussing or oozing...it would crack open and hurt pretty bad. After about a month the other corner cracked open. It would begin to heal and then crack open again. I tried antifungal cream and that seemed to help things out, but it would not heal up all the way. In addition to the cracking in the corners, the center of my lip felt very dry.
Avatar n tn Or a bad case of Chapped lips , a condition whereby the lips become dry and possibly cracked. It may be caused by the evaporation of moisture. Lip balm can often provide temporary relief, though it should not be used extensively. One should avoid licking their lips as saliva contains the enzyme amylase, which can damage the already compromised lip tissue. Honey can be used on the lips as a natural remedy.
Avatar n tn Last week I had cracks in the corner of my lips from dry lips which are currently healed, and now there are several little bumps across the surface of my lips that are not visible unless you look real hard for them. When I rub my lips together they feel like sand paper. What is wrong with me?
Avatar n tn Cheilitis is associated with many conditions from Vitamin B12 deficiency, iron deficiency anemia, be a symptom of allergies.can also be caused by taking the (retinoid) drug Isotretinoin (brand name Roaccutane). Applying protective paraffin-based ointment (such as Vaseline) or lip balms to the lips is normally very effective. Also take Vitamin B supplements. If nothing works you can have a biopsy done to find out the cause. ref:http://en.wikipedia.
Avatar n tn I dont have cracked lips, no dentures, drink a fair amount of water, and no cracks in the corner of my mouth. Perhaps it is from breathing through my mouth too much? Thanks. Rob.
Avatar n tn But if you want to get yourself tested for vit A deficiency then you can go in for levels of retinol(pure vitamin A) in the blood or RBP-EIA (retinol-binding protein-enzyme immunoassay).Pls discuss these options with your doctor. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted in case you have any additional queries.Kind regards.

Avatar n tn Hi, This could be a part of Cheilitis, which is a medical condition involving inflammation of the lip. Or a bad case of Chapped lips , a condition whereby the lips become dry and possibly cracked. It may be caused by the evaporation of moisture.

Avatar n tn It has only happened maybe like three or four times. But I will get little bumps on my lips. They will start in the corner of my lips and kind of go towards the middle. They are not really painful but it feels like I have bad chapped lips and I have to keep chap stick with me. I have been putting Vitamin E on my lips. It lasts for a little while goes away and I never know when it will happen again.

Avatar n tn I have a reddish rash in the corners of my mouth, tightness around the outline of the lips, and a feeling of increased roughness (like there is some abnormal friction) on the inside of the lips, especially on the inside of the lower lip which causes it to be caught in the chewing process and be bitten, swollen, and got caught in even more. The corners of my mouth crack also, and that hurts. All this has been going on for about a month by now.

Avatar f tn However, I did have another type of herpes-like symptoms few months back where the corner of my lips cracked and had small cluster of spots on my upper lip. But, that was some kind of vitamin deficiency symptom because as soon I took my vitamin pills, it went away. Basically, I am panicking about these two blisters I got. Any ideas what it could be?
1763947 tn?1334055319 I made the classic mistake of thinking if a little [B12] is good, then a lot will be better ... duh. Since B vitamins are water soluble (right?), I figured they would just wash out of my body ... but no. I cut back to a 'normal' dose and the cracked lips/corner of mouth cleared up pretty fast.
Avatar n tn If you have cracks at the corner of your mouth it indicates B2 deficiency in this case you need to take B2 supplements. If the symptoms still persist, consult your skin specialist or dermatologist for a clinical examination nad confirmed diagnosis. Let us know about how you are doing and if you have any other doubts. Regards.
Avatar f tn I do workout but I also would get large painful soars in the corner of my lips when I was about eight. Needless to say they thought I had a vitamin deficiency but never tested me for it. I still get the soars randomly usually when I get my period and my doctor suspects that I have anemia during the time of my period but otherwise my blood tests came back fine when I went to the doctor last winter. I am healthy and do eat fruits, vegetables, and a good source of protein and fats.
