Hello Navreet kaur
thanks for your question
your doctor have prescribed you correct medicines continue with it
apart from ointments i would advise you to take multivitamin supplements because nutritional deficiency might be contributing to your damaged lips
Watch your diet please
avoid fatty fried and spicy food or carbonated drinks
have plenty of fluids and fresh fruits like papaya grapes and citrus fruits
hope this helps you
Best wishes
