The thing I don’t get is that why don’t girls get this condition? My gf has been putting on lip balms for years and her lips are still fine, a lot of girls outt there use lip products all the time and yet they don’t get this as much as men..... Why is it that men get this condition more than women? On the side note I’m about 80% healed :D once I’m cured I ll give Everyeone the details as to what I have been dong differently than others   [End]

Im convinced that this is an internal problem now, ive left them alone to no avail. Ive tried enough topical treatments. Ive tried nystatin, on diflucan right now. I ve done everything I could topically, now im convinced this is internal and can be cured once the internal issue is fixed   [End]

An update So a few days ago I applied 1% Hydrocortisone. Worst mistake ever! It made my lips peel, and made my skin extremely thin, I can now like see the blood vessels on my lips. I’ve put honey on my lips as it has some good healing properties and is an antibacterial. Also it tastes delicious and is natural. My lips are ’raw’ but I can tell that the honey is speeding up the healing process. However this is a chronic condition so it will get the hard skin forming again. I was wondering if anyone has tried this with some luck? I will continue applying honey and will give the forum ...

STAY AWAY FROM ANY CORTISONE CREAMS ok so I was about 70% healed and decided to use hydrocortisone with ectosone, and half of my lips skin just came off when I wiped out the cortisone creams from my lips so i am back to where I started. This really sucks, because I was actually seeing so much improvements. So yeah people stay away from cortisone creams, they are definetly not meant for lip skin!   [End]

No problem! Im seeing amazing results with what Im doing. Nystatin is working well too, however it has not fully cleared my thrush. But again it has only been a day. If you have a white toungue then I highly recommend having a good oral hygine first. If you dont then I do not know, you might have something else, seeing an oral surgean might help? Good luck everyone! :)   [End]

Ive been suffering for about 5 months now. This I believe triggered from pulling my lips out in a very stressful and dry season time. Also I had vitamin D deficieny which leads to yeast infection. The product I used to use was Crest Alchol free mouthwash. I used to use it atleast 3 times per week. I visited my oral surgean yesterday and he prescribed me Nystatin oral wash for 2 weeks, which pretty much kills any yeast/fungi infection I might have in my mouth, and its working better than the mouthwash. Has no side effects. http://www.netdoctor.co.uk/mouth-and-teeth/medicines/nystan-o ...

try ”Blistex medicated lip ointment” the reviews of it on any website are amazing. Im trying it out instead of vaseline because I think vaseline does lock in moisture but it does not heal the lips. Will let the forum know if condition gets better. Ive tried tacrolimus ointment also known as Protopic, it reduces swelling in the matter of minutes but doesnt help heal lips   [End]

okay so I have an infection on my upper right gum Inside my upper lip, its like dark coloured and is spreading, its not completely black but I can tell something is wrong. This could be related to my upper lip swelling? But could an infection like this be related to healing of the lips? Im seeing an oral surgean next week, will update the forum on what he says about my peeling, swollen lips and the infection that I have Hopefully everything works out, It sucks how my lips just keep peeling like no tomorrow, however they did get better after good oral hygenie   [End]

I strongly believe that EC is an infection. As I started cleaning my mouth with mouthwash and proper hygine my lips got better. Also my lips are swollen and form white gooey stuff when I wake up maybe because the infection feeds on lips when you are asleep? After I remove the hard dead skin on my lips, they get better. So the more hard skin is on your lips the worse they condition gets, as the infection feeds on the dead skin? thats just my theory However I saw alot of improvements with anticeptic alcohol free mouthwash and leaving them alone to the point when they naturally come off in ...

i obviously do not use alcohol based mouthwash. Ive never tried aquaphor and i probably wont be trying it as im seeing great results with just vaseline. And i refuse to believe that vaseline is a harmful thing for your lips. Im seeing great results with just vaseline, ive tried other harsh chemicals as protopic and cortisone creams but vaseline is the best. I rinse my lips with the anticeptic alcohol freemouthwash and honestly in just 15 days my life has started to come back. It might be too early to say this is my cure so im still waiting. I will post my pics soon so you guys can see how ...

I’ve had this for about 4 months now. Totally devastated my life for the first 3 months and I got this from peeling my lips after they got very dry during a very stressed out period. I would like to call the method I use the ”Vaseline and Oral Hygiene” method. All you need for this method is Vaseline- petroleum jelly, anticeptic oral mouthwash-which kills bacteria, and maybe if want an anticeptic cleaner for wounds. http://www.dettol.co.uk/products-for-your-family-personal-hygiene-liquid Thats the one I used, but you could use any other if you wish. Also take a look at this artic ...

i would definetly not suggest you to use any kind of scissors on your lips, as this can cause infection! the skin on our lips is very delicate and is very prone to any kind of infection through any bacteria. If you are planning on doing this, please ”sanitize” the metal first. Use a nail cutter if you really have to?   [End]

my bottom lip is 50% healed and my top lip is 75% healed All i am doing in applying vaseline all the time and MOUTHWASH 3 times a day, this is a key! as any infection on the lips will die with the mouth wash, i take showers twice a day in which i brush my teeth, my lips are also getting better with the change in weather, so if you live in cold weather im guessing the steam method sould be beneficial! I will be posting pics very soon, its been about 10 days since i have ”fully exfoliated” my lips, i have started to form grooves too and i do not get those large ugly corn flakes anymore. an ...

i am convinced that leaving them alone is the ONLY cure! the more you exfoliative them the more trauma you are causing to them hence they will not heal!, lets say you get a scratch on your arm, after a while a thick skin is formed and then it just comes off by itself if you keep taking off the hard skin without it being fully healed the hard skin will keep forming therefore it becomes a cycle, our lips i believe work the same way! what do you guys think? when i leave my lips alone the hard skin just comes off naturally byitself in the shower   [End]
