Avatar f tn It gets embarrassing sometimes, because people point out the red ring around my mouth. Quite often. Does anybody know a brand of lip therapy that actually WORKS, or have another suggestion? Thanks!
Avatar m tn I know this is hard to believe, but vaseline and chapstick actually degrade your lips, eroding the very outer layer of your lip skin. Petroleum products should never be used on mucous membranes, and that's why it's bad to use vaseline as a sexual lubricant. It degrades mucous membranes. You know how so many people are addicted to chapstick? It's because they use the chapstick, and then the very outer layer of their lips is degraded, so they need more chapstick.

Avatar n tn Hello. My toddler has a chapped lip too, just the upper middle part. It's been chapped for 1 mo. Dr. said it is NOT herpes, just chapped. Carmex turned her into lip balm addict. She pick constantly just to get more. Then I read about the camphor in it and pharmastist said NOT to use it for chapped lips b/c it's really desgined to dry out cancer soars, which she doesn't have. Pharmastist and Dr. both rec. vaseline -- white pet. jelly.
Avatar n tn I have never had a problem before but about three weeks ago my lips felt like they were getting chapped so I used lip balm , vaseline, estee lauder lip renue, but they are still chapped they feel dry and somewhat itchy. have been using neosporin lip therapy since yesterday and they fell better when it is on but back to dry the minute it wears off! They dont seem to be getting better.
Avatar f tn About 12 days ago I noticed my bottom lip started to swell. I had just used a new lipstick, the kind that stains the lips then you put on a clear coat. I have been using this type for many months. The lip was stinging, & burning along with the swelling. I also thought this was a reaction to some antibiotics I was on. I have never had this happen before. Now, 12 days later my lips are not swelled but they still have blisters that burn, even water from the shower burns them.
Avatar n tn Applying protective paraffin-based ointment (such as Vaseline) or lip balms to the lips is normally very effective. Also take Vitamin B supplements. Let us know if you need any other information. Regards.
Avatar f tn I feel that sounds strange, but the only consistent item that preceeds the dryness for him. He gets an orange ring around his lips then the chapped ring mainly under the lower lip. I fight with him to put vaseline or balms on it. It's just a huge battle. I can see it affecting his self image as he is now 8 yrs old. He has been also becoming irritable. I fear that there is something more here than just a slight allergy. Can you give me any feed back?
Avatar f tn I think I got two cuts on my lips too so I have been trying to keep them covered from my cold sore with vaseline. I apply abrevia and vaseline to the sore multiple times every day. When I woke up this morning, I noticed little bumps on my bottom lip. They aren't red or white, they just blend in with my lip. They are visible if you look and feel them though. I have read that it could be because my chap stick is old.
Avatar m tn Well on my upper lip not my lip but my upper lip i got raw flaky red skin i had it for about 7 months now, I tried everything too heal it and it seems like nothing works? Even topical gel,When i take a shower it gets dry real fast. All i can do is use moisturizer too help it. When my skin heals it cracks and falls off, It does the same routine every time for the past 7 months. And it does not ITCH or anything and its not eczema!
Avatar f tn My dermatologist recommend using Aquaphor (made by Eucerin). You can get it in a tub, a large tube or a small tube. I have all three. My Aquaphor goes everywhere with me! It doesn't cure it but it relieves and moisturizes. You can find it in the store by the Vaseline. Hope this helps!
Avatar n tn Im 22 and ive been having this lip peeling problem for about a year now, an the lip is dry and its peeling but it never bleeds...the thing thats worrying me, is that the skin under the peeling skin looks scally..an its straight dry, anything i put on it (vasiline, chap stick, water..a bunch of stuff from the doctor) it seems like it jus ***** it up...im believe its an "alergic reaction" but im want to know if my original skin is gonna grow back?
Avatar f tn As long as that Vaseline isn't burning like the other lip balms, do keep trying it- if it doesn't get better, do head to the doctor so they can get a better idea of what the cause is- heal up soon!
Avatar n tn 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.org/wiki/Chapped_lips Some causes of the symptoms you mention, could be lip biting, lip licking, Vit.B2 deficiency, smoking, overexposure to sun and ill fitting dentures. In extreme cases, this could be due to bacterial or fungal skin infection.
230202 tn?1370793579 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.
Avatar m tn t peel it off, it becomes hard when dry but when I peel it off my lip becomes reddish and inflamed . i have tried so many different lip balms, they only moisturize my lips temporarily, please help help me i don't know what to do with it anymore? Is there a cream that I could use to heal the pigmentation in my lip?
Avatar n tn It has happened to me twice before (had used Avon lip balm then) and i applied Smyle herbal gel and Vaseline and it worked. This time though it is not working. I've been applying Smyle gel and Himalaya lip balm to cure it. If I use Nivea lip balm nothing happens though. it feels really nasty without anything on my lips and so I have to keep applying something. Please help...

Avatar m tn I would try Vaseline at night...I know it sounds gross, but it would be worth a try. Some websites say lip reduction surgery is something they refer to once they know other treatments don't work. Check out this website, it may help: http://exfoliativecheilitis.
Avatar f tn The dryness is mostly on my upper lip, spreading above the lip border on both sides of my lip. I have consulted a doctor and taken iron and vitamin B supplement which haven't work. I use lip balm every day as well.
Avatar m tn lower lips were extremely dry and had a scaly crust-like exterior which looks extremely terrible. I thought they were just chapped. I started using regular vaseline and other types of lip balms you find at retail stores. I used so many different things from vitamins, lip balms, oils...you name it. I saw a doctor in Oct. who prescribed me with Triamcinolone 0.1% to use for 2 weeks. After that didn't work I was given Nystatin & Triamcinolone for 2 weeks and that also didn't work.
Avatar f tn Thank you for your reply, I have put soothing lip balm, vaseline and moisturizer on constantly throughout the day for 2 years. They do not help. It's not the fact that the rash is dry, its always there, always red, always noticeable.
Avatar n tn I woke up this morning and i noticed a tingling feeling on my upper lip, when i looked in the mirror, i noticed a bump on my lip. i didnt think anything of it and i left it alone, but throughout the day the tingling never went awat and it has gotten bigger, i tried putting vaseline on it but it only seems to be getting worse. i dont know if it's a cold sore or a reaction to something, i am no sexually active, and it's been a while since i kissed someone of the lips persay.
Avatar m tn A PICTURE OF WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE: http://i1067.photobucket.com/albums/u422/MissKilahBaby/Snapshot_20121119_1.jpg I am 16 years old and I am overweight, I do not eat healthy at all. Ever since the beginning of the year I've had this itchy patch of skin above my lips. During the summer it went away, but when I school started back up I got it again. This time it's worse because it's around my lip and a little bit on my lip. Vaseline does nothing but keep it moisturized.
Avatar f tn what about strange patches on your lip and tiny bumps, I lick my lips often , I use both vaseline and lip gloss and this just started Monday also I tend to drink water so what could this be?
