A member asked:
What's recommended as a cure for lips that are cracked at the corners?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Antifungals: Typically fissuring only at the corners of the lips is caused by oral fluids accumulating there during sleep and becoming infected with a yeast or bacteria. It may have a dental origin as well.
