Fissured lips
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query and photograph.
I can see just an area of fissuring on your lower lip.
This can be easily treated with the use of a mild steroid cream like Triamcinolone 0.1% (you may need a prescription for this, please check with your pharmacy).
Apply this cream at night for a week.
It is safe and effective.
Try this and let me know the results.
There is nothing to worry.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
