Brief Answer:
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.
