Common Questions and Answers about How to cure dry cracked lips naturally
lip
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.
This condition has remained constant for the last 30 days. The lips remain dry and cracked, but there have been no blisters or sores--just dry, cracked lips which remain sticky when pressed together. Apparently that kid had some sort of lip infection and passed it on to me. Do the symptoms sound familiar, and is there a cure? I haven't been able to get to a dermatologist since I am in a medically underserved area of Indiana.

Keep getting staph infections from the issue, have taken antibiotics doxicyclin, bactrim ds, and famvir for viral, used cortisones creams, elidel creams, yeast/fungal cream, vaseline, taken vitamins, oral predisone. Nothing is wokring. My lips get sore, dry , start to get little bumps on them, gets a little crusty, gets inflamed and irritated. Tests have been done for autoimmune diseases, Thyroid, blood work, all seems to be negative.
i didnt paid attention and continued wearing my lipstick which were mate and hence were making my lips more dry. my lips got worse and i had to stop my lipstick because now lips were simply too dry. i was frustrated being 24 yrs old i cant wear lipstick. lips was dry, the feeling was irresistible. i had to keep it moisturised. at first the corners were getting dark. pharmacist told me buy vaseline. i went away but came back.
day by day it was getting worst.
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.
Me too!!! My lips are beyond cracked. They're pilling and bleeding. I hate to kiss my bf because I'm always worried about them being rough lol. I've tried everything from drinking tons of water, carmax, vasoline and even cooking with olive oil (for internal moisture) still the same...
The infection (or whatever it was) spread a little farther than the edges of my lips. I went to the doctor who was able to cure the thrush but could do nothing about my lips. He gave me different topical creams, none of which seemed to work. I started using hydrocortisone cream, but that didn't seem to help at all either. My lips would start to clear and when I'd think they were healed, it would come back.

( that ewwy smell.. can u help me.. please...
I have been having seriously burning and itchy lips for the past 3 weeks. I went to the pharmacy. The pharmacist said it was cold sores, and recommend me the Zovirax cream. I used it for a few days and the the painful feeling was somewhat suppressed. However, after stopping using the cream, my lips were cracked and dry and tingling. I tried different lip balms, such as Carmex and Burt's Bee, to heal them, but then the burning and itchiness came back!
Doctor said us probably something viral and prescribed medicene to help symptoms. I have NEVER had chapped peeling lips ever. The medicene seemed to help, but now that I have finished it, the area is becoming red and sore again. If I put anything to soften the area, it becomes red and so on entire upper lip and above it. If I put nothing on it, it become dry, peeling and cracked. Either way I have no idea what is causing it or why. Can anyone please help me?? I have no answers.
