Question

I've noticed these white spots at the corners of my lips for the past two months and I'm starting to get a bit worried. I'm not sure what's causing them or how to treat them. Could you suggest any medicine or remedy that might help with this?

It is there since last two months The white spots in the corners of your lips could be a fungal infection known as angular cheilitis. You can apply an antifungal cream like Clotrimazole 1% cream twice daily for 2 weeks. Additionally, taking a B-complex vitamin supplement can help in resolving the condition.
