dry cracked lips during pregnancy

Hi, I'm 15weeks and my lips are always cracked and dry when I wake up I've tried Shea Butter its not working. Does anyone have a solution to this issue?

This is my first pregnancy and I have decided to do this as natural as possible meaning no pharmaceuticals at all. I have a stuffy head, dry cracked lips, sneezing like crazy.

My lips are always cracked and dry

Lips dry due to needing more hydration. Olive oil works for adults. Would that be safe for a baby? Never looked it up...

I had the same problem, dry lips and feet. My heels cracked and bleed. Every night I would rub gobs of Vaseline on my feet and cover them with socks. I used Vaseline on my lips also and it did help. I told the nurse about this problem and she said I was dehydrated and increase the water. I started drinking 100 to 120 ounces of water daily and within a week my heels and cracked lips went away.

s vagina but she stopped me. Although she stopped me, some vaginal fluid got on my lips. I have dry , cracked lips. If this female has HIV, what are my chances of catching the virus via vaginal fluid going on my dry and cracked lips. I used a condom during intercourse.

Moisturizers should be reapplied liberally during the day. For dry lips, she should avoid licking the lips as saliva evaporates quickly resulting in them being drier than before. Ask her to drink plenty of water and take multivitamin supplements and do not apply lipstick or other cosmetic products for some days. Use a humidifier to moisturize the air in your home and apply shea butter or Vaseline on your lips.

On Tuesday morning, which was the first day my cold kicked in, I woke up not only with the regular cold symptoms (stuffy nose, achy joints and headache) but I also woke up with extremely dry lips. I figured it was just the usual cracked or chapped lips, probably from the dry air, but today I'm a bit worried about the condition. When I checked them out earlier this evening, it seemed like some bumps were developing on my lips.

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. 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.

Dehydration is the commonest cause of dry cracked lips but you appear to be taking enough fluids. The other possibility is iron and Vit B deficiency. Along with multivitamin B (not a multivitamin which also has other vitamins) take an iron preparation and see. They can also be caused by allergies and infections. You could either be suffering from contact dermatitis or from allergy to some food. You should get an allergy test done, either a skin test or RAST, to know what you are allergic to.

He currently does not have any visible sore on his mouth, but he has very dry /cracked lips (may bleed). If he kisses me (with his dry /cracked lips), how likely will he pass the virus to me? Also, if he licked and kissed other parts of my body like neck and nipples, will it have chance of catching HSV1?

Coconut oil is amazing for tons of things especially dry or cracked skin including lips and even your nipples when breastfeeding!

On this occasion, whereas there was initially no bleeding from my lips, they were a little sore as I had peeled away some dry skin the day before. During french kissing with the woman, I tasted blood in my mouth, and so pulled away. I noticed blood on her lips, although I was unsure if it was hers or mine. I immediately went to the restroom at the nightclub to wash out my mouth thoroughly and noticed blood as I spat into the sink during rinsing.

We have multiple side effects from folks that include cracked lips, sores on the tongue, dry itchy skin and so on... Including dry eyes and more. SO - my suggestion would be to drink as much water as possible - without drowning yourself --- and as practical. Don't go too overboard and get waterlogged --- LOL! - But yanno - keep yourself well hydrated. Consider yourself on a marathon to save your life. Your body is going to be fighting harder than it ever has before.

Because she rubbed her vagina and then touched her breasts and then rubbed her breasts on my face, could i have got any of the vaginal fluid in my mouth? My lips were dry and somewhat cracked, could this have made the situation worst?

My lips are Soooo dry this pregnancy. I do a lip scrub equal parts sugar and coconut oil (or olive oil) and scrub for 6 minutes Or so gently. Then I put a little more oil/ a thin layer on as chap stick after I wash off the scrub then I use Burt's bees chap stick throughout the day. It's helped Soooo much. I do it once a week or every 3 days depending how dry/cracked/peeling they are.

For the past two weeks, I have suffered from very dry lips. The outside of my lips have been very crusty and burn whenever I don't have chapstick on. The sides of my mouth keep cracking no matter what I put on them. I have tried Chapstick brand, I have tried Aquaphor brand and Bliztex Medicated ointment on my lips with no results. The outside of my bottom lips has raised bumps and I am constantly rubbing yellow crust off of them. Can someone please suggest something. My Dr.
