Angular Chelitis: Angular cheilitis is an inflammatory condition that occurs in 1 or both angles of the mouth. This typically presents with erythema, painful cracking, scaling, bleeding, and ulceration at the corners of the mouth. Angular cheilitis can occur spontaneously but more often develops in those who wear oral dentures and appliances, those who are required to wear masks. Treatment is with mycolog ii.
