Need medicine help
I have a condition where every time the weather is cold or dry (even prolonged exposure to Aircon ) the skin around my lips becomes extremely dry and then gets a little burnt with cuts all around my lips. Then it obviously hurts when I smile or want to eat something. I have tried using Vaseline and various chapsticks but they don't help. I used Elocon ointment earlier and that always worked like a charm in one day itself but some said it's not the best option to use on a regular basis. Can you please suggest any medicine that will help with this issue that I can use regularly?

Without examination of the skin condition and knowing the extent of involvement.. along with this more information on ongoing medication or history of previous/current skin/systemic illness it is not possible to comment on the treatment that would suit you best. You should send me images through private online consult for a better assessment of the problem and approaching it accordingly. Hope this is helpful.
