This condition is called as Angular cheilitis and is most commonly due to vitamin B2 deficiency. But if it is recurrent despite taking b-complex supplements you should visit an oral pathologist or an oral medicine specialist for the accurate evaluation of your case so that the right treatment can be advised. Regards.
