Any new vitamins?: One of the B vitamins called niacin commonly can have this effect. It is available over-the-counter and some people don't realize this can happen . If westernization lasts more than a couple of hours, I'd recommend checking with your physician.

Take care!

Lip balm: Dry cracking lips occur more commonly in cold, dry weather. Over the counter lip balms usually work quite well.

Question 6

please can you advice me of what cream i should use for my chopped and like burning lips cause by cold sores, please i need your advice because it alm?

Accepted Answer

Lip eczema treatable: After cold sores, persistent chapped lips can be lip eczema, which can be treated like skin eczema, using hydrocortisone cream a few days, plus Vaseline or Aquaphor to retain moisture. Sometimes, lipsticks or lip sunscreen chemicals are causing an allergic reaction on the lips. Other times, a person is a primary lip-licker (it's her habit). Once cracked, lips can get irritated by foods and juices.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

Lips: Try aquaphor healing ointment or an anti yeast product such as clotrimazole.

Question 8

i have slight swelling in lips along with redeness and burning sensation around lips since last one month?

Accepted Answer

Lip swelling: Often this problem is due to applying lip balm or other substances that come in contact with your face. Beeswax,which many lip balm products contain, is felt to be irritating to the lips. If you can't pinpoint the cause ,consult a dermatologist. In the meantime try applying cortisone type cream.

Question 9

all of a sudden my lip itched an a look burning as my lip just swoll up. it doesn't hurt and its gong down by the minute. what could it be?

Accepted Answer

Allergic reaction: called angioedema. I suggest Benadryl (diphenhydramine) ASAP and if this persists, see your physician.

Question 10

my 7 year old daughter has a severe burning feeling around the outter sides of her lips. what can i use to sooth this and what can the cause be?

Accepted Answer

Cheilitis: is inflammation of the lips. Most often this is caused by dryness/chapping and sun exposure. Allergies may contribute. Lip licking, biting or rubbing habits are frequently involved. Paradoxically, constant licking of the lips causes drying and irritation. Digestive enzymes present in saliva or even infection (herpes) can contribute. Barrier lubricants (lip salve or Vaseline) helps;discuss with Doc
