My son is 6 years old and at the corner of his lips it gets white and then on one corner of his lip a sore /cut comes where it is so painful.

See pediatrician: This could be several things. 1) more than average chapping of the lips 2) vitamin deficiency 3) herpes 4) fungal infection. Check with your pediatrician who can make this distinction.
