You need help: Your symptoms can be due to a variety of causes from sunburn and cold weather to allergies, yeast infections, eczema, or neuropathy(a neurological disorder that damages the nerve endings in your lips). It would be prudent to consult with a dermatologist for an evaluation and appropriate diagnosis so that your symptoms can be properly addressed.
