• Small bumps at the lip corner starting with a crack are most suggestive of angular cheilitis with secondary irritation/infection
• Moisture, saliva pooling and dryness can lead to inflammation followed by tiny bumps or pustule-like lesions
• Early stage involvement is usually mild but can become recurrent if triggers persist
Next Steps
• Clinical evaluation to confirm whether it is purely inflammatory or has fungal/bacterial component
• Assessment of contributing factors like dryness, lip licking habit or nutritional deficiency
• Early management helps prevent recurrence and pigmentation
Helpful Tips / Word of Caution
• Keep the area moisturized and avoid frequent licking or touching
• Maintain good hydration and lip care routine
• Avoid picking the bumps as it can delay healing and cause marks
