A member asked:

Can your lips burn when they are chapped. mine had dry skin on them and they burned when i put lip bomb on. is this normal?

Lip balm: If it has fragrance and other additives it may irritate your lips and cause them to burn, use plain vaseline to moisturize your lips.

Yes: Depending on why your lips were irritated, you may suffer burning or pain with certain balms or even lipstick. Try using a different chap stick and avoid what ever you did to get your lips to dry out. It may have been related to your wisdom tooth extraction as the procedure can involve pressure on your lips.
