Can i use neosporin for my lip?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: You can, especially if there is a wound or crack causing bleeding. However, i don't like neosporin on the face because the neomycin in neosporin has been known o cause a chemical dermatitis. Use polysporin (bacitracin and polymyxin) for this purpose instead. If using it just for chapped lips, just use chapstick or similar...
