My philtrum is a deep red, dry, and is usually painfully burning. i feel really embarrass when i out in public.. what medication or creams can i use?

Dry Redness: It is difficult to determine the cause of the redness. It can be from a number of conditions or even possibly due to a cold sore. I suggest you have your physician examine you to determine how to properly treat your condition.

Hydrocortison cream: Try Hydrocortisone cream/ointment first for a few days. If this does not solve the problem, see your doctor.
