i have a recurring rash and crack on the corner of my mouth. seems to only occur during my menstrual cycle. could it be angular chelitis?

Accepted Answer

Yes: Angular cheilitis is caused by SALIVA drawn into a deep fold of skin. Mostly during sleep. Typically an older person who has lost teeth. If you are "dehydrated", WHY?

Apply several times at day but especially at night.
