My lips have been super dry and sticky for the past two years, and the skin keeps peeling off. They're getting smaller and losing their shape it's really bothering me. Is there any treatment or surgery that could help fix this? I've been struggling with it for so long.

While there isn't a single magic fix, there are treatments and lifestyle changes that can help improve your lip health and potentially reverse some of the changes you're experiencing.

I've woken up the past two mornings with these red, itchy bumps on the right side of my neck and right hand, kind of like insect bites. They're nowhere else on my body. I stopped using a fan while sleeping recently. Could these be mosquito bites or something else? What should I use to treat them?
