Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The cracked lips and sore tongue could be because of the anemic stomatitis. or it can be because of the herpes infection or recurrrent aphthous ulcers over the tongue.
Consult a oral physician and get yourself examined to rule out the above mentioned conditions. You need to get a blood investigation done to rule out anemia.
You have to take nutritional supplements for anemia. consume lot of green leafy vegetatbles and fruits.
You can also take topical anesthetic and analgesics like anabel gel for the pain. Apply lip balm or Vaseline over the lip.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
