Cracks at corners of my mouth or lips
I also have chapped lips , this is very frequent to me , moreover i have observed that it happens when i eat something very salty like salty peanuts... although it happens even without having such things also. Can i get some recommendation of what to apply( cream) or is there some kind of deficiency for which there is some vitamin...?
