I have this from iron deficiency!! I take iron and b-complex daily to prevent it. I've had very severe moments where my lips become super itchy and keep peeling from this. My favorite ointment is CeraVe Healing Ointment and for travel I use Aquaphor lipbalm in the tube.

Originally was prescribed anti-fungals but they didn't help too much, which was when I kept doing my own research to discover what worked for me. So if anyone that has this and sees that antifungals aren't working, try to see if you're iron-deficient or b vitamin deficient like me!!

Hoping this helps someone out: The first time I got this it lasted so long, nothing I tried worked, including antifungals or barriers creams like petroleum jelly. Eventually I discovered cortizone ointment (better than the cream cause it’s thicker/petroleum jelly based). That fixed it so fast! A couple years later I was on accutane and got it again and my derm prescribed prescription 2% hydrocortisone for it (without me saying that it had worked for me in the past), so it’s definitely a derm approved way to deal with this and I highly recommend and hope this prevents someone from having this annoying condition for over a month straight like I did!

It could be that it's not just a dry patch but something else if it doesn't go away with moisturising. Check with doctor.

@Melon29813 10 ай бұрын

I would try using some kind of ointment. My eczema decided to flare up on my collarbone recently and CeraVe healing ointment was a life saver for it. Idk if you are a bra wearer, but if the patch is around where the strap is, maybe it's your bra strap rubbing against the area. (Once again, if you wear one.) If those don't help, you may want to see a doctor to make sure of what condition it is.

I get this a few times a year. It’s definitely yeast exacerbated for me… once I started using the Lotrimin (or similar) creams, they have been much faster to heal. I did lose a lot of weight quickly about 15 years ago due to a horrible pneumonia bout. Have kept it off, but I think for me, it’s just my RBF (resting bitch face). The corners of my mouth tilt down, and are sorta tucked in a bit where I get dimples. Doesn’t allow for saliva to dry as easily.

I think mine is due to the use of harsh actives. During the day I apply an ascorbic acid solution spiked with centella, and at night I apply tretinoin. I use liberal amounts of Cosrx snail essense over the ascorbic acid and tretinoin. My skin looks great except for the corners of my mouth and the occasional red ring around my neck. I just back off on the actives whenever I get too irritated, and apply a thick ointment on my problem areas at night.

Do you apply snail mucin essence after Tretinoin or before Tretinoin?

@megaliberty 10 ай бұрын

@@samyumail1 Since I am using the lighter gel form of tretinoin, I apply the snail serum over. Dr. Dray might suggest doing it differently. My way has been working well for me. Generally speaking, thicker products are applied over more watery products. I have found that snail serum soothes the redness that results from beginning treatment with tretinoin, or stepping up the potency. I made the mistake of applying a thick moisturizer and it stung pretty bad as it was sinking in. In addition, I mix a little soothing centella extract in with the snail and that helps as well. I just switched to the . 05% tretinoin, so my skin is reacting like it did when I first began treatment, but the snail/centella mix seems to be helping at least.
