Skin over lips (not lips) is chapped and cracked. possible reaction to the face mask wearing for covid19. what ointment should help to reduce it? or cream? please help. my skin hurts and burns
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Doctor can examine: Persistent chapped or damaged lips or nearby skin may be eczema, usually treated 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 her habit). Once cracked, lips or skin get irritated by routine foods and juices.
