Dr. Gary Sandler answered

Specializes in Dentistry

Chapped lips: Drink more water to ensure that you are not dehydrated and use a lip balm or even petroleum jelly (vaseline). Some medications or medical conditions may also be a contributing factor. Therefore consult with your own physician if the first two methods do not help.
