Why do the corners of my mouth often crack? dry air in the office, maybe? i keep myself hydrated, but do i need to use moisturizer for my skin?

Well: Several things can cause this dry skin humidity or dryness of the air or vitamin deficiency. Vaseline type lubrication can help. Consult Healthtap or face-to-face primary care doctor for diagnosis and treatment
