I'm really concerned because I've had very dry lips and the surrounding skin is red and flaky for about four months now. I've tried using ghee, milk cream, and different lip care products, but nothing seems to work. What could be causing this, and how can I fix it?
you may be experiencing severe dryness and inflammation of the lips. I recommend trying a medicated lip balm containing ingredients such as hydrocortisone and ceramides to help soothe the redness and dryness. You can also apply a thin layer of petroleum jelly or a lip balm with SPF throughout the day to keep your lips hydrated. Additionally, drink plenty of water to stay hydrated from the inside out. If the symptoms persist, you may need to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and treatment.
