A doctor has provided 1 answer

MeticulousCareNeeded: This is fairly common. First decide if you are eating any foods that irritate your mouth or lips. Do you get chapped lips fairly often? Does saliva collect in the corners of your mouth? Do you work outdoors or in the wind?Well, you get the drift. Next try to keep the corners of your mouth dry and protected from saliva and use a topical steroid and antibacterial ointment and Chap-Stick.
