My lips are chapped at the sides?!


Question: Hi!
For the past week now, I have been using Blistex Complete Moisture, and my lips are perfectly moisturized. However, at the sides of my mouth, I have these cuts that just will not heal. I even put Vaseline on them every night before I go to bed. I was told that this could be a vitamin deficiency (B vitamins). Is this a deficiency or a stubborn cut, and what should I do?

Sounds like you are Vitamin C deficient. Better start drinking your orange juice and eating citrus fruits. You can also pick up a bottle of Vitamin C supplements at your local grocery/pharmacy.
