Hi. Greetings. Are you on any kind of medications for any other condition ? For acne? Or you probably at suffering from some lip condition like actinic cheilitis/ lichen planus. Please see a dermatologist at the earliest. Use a lip balm with sunscreen. You may need some anti inflammatory TCS ointment under prescription for improvement. Send me pics / further enquiries on follow up private chat. Warm regards, Dr Govind Suresh Mittal, excel care hospital, Bangalore.
