Cheilitis: I need to see pictures to make diagnosis. Cheilitis can be caused by vitamin deficiency or candidiasis. Vitamin B deficiency is a common cause. Vitamin B can be found in beans, yeast, etc. if fungal, you need treatment, plus it's better to take multivitamins for possible vitamin B deficiency. Topical Nystatin or clotrimazole are helpful in fungal cheilitis.
