A member asked:
Im always drink a lot of water everyday but i always still have chapped lips. do i have other disease? its embarrassing when people see my lips dry.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Might be lip eczema: Persistent chapped lips may be lip eczema, which can be treated like skin eczema, using hydrocortisone cream 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 a habit). Once cracked, lips get irritated by routine foods and juices. A doctor can evaluate.
