Painful Cracked lips

2021-05-19 07:48:37
My son is having cracked and chapped lips from the last 10 days..despite using Vaseline it is not showing any improvement..and day by day it is becoming painful. Difficult for him to eat as well. Is it due to any kind of deficiency ..since it is the first time he is having such severely cracked lips.

Cracked lips may be due to dehydration. Make him drink a lot of water. It may also be due to deficiency of vitamin B- complex. You can give syrup Bevon 5 ml once a day for two weeks.
