no i dont get white dots, im going to see a oral medicine person again next month but decided today to exfoliate the dead skin off my lips because i dont think theyre getting any better, in fact i think after wiping it off the are of rawness has got even bigger which is really annoying. i took photos though of when my lips were really bad to show. my lips look normal now but they feel very raw. i just dont think that leaving them to heal naturally will ever do the job and i really want something permenmant.
