Cheilitis: This is a very difficult to treat condition because the causes are difficult to pinpoint. Some possibile causes are allergic or irritant contact sensitivity. This could be a lip balm, lip stick, tooth paste or mouthwash. There are other less common causes. Another cause, either primary or secondary is lip licking. Until you pay attention to this it's not always evident that is what you are doing.
