Chelitis could be the diagnosis. Local factors in the form of salivary micro flora , toothpaste or even sometimes sometimes preservatives of your lip balm can worsen the condition. Even certain cases are because of factors like sun exposure . Do find out the cause and try to find out hypoallergenic creams to moisturiser the lips.
Do connect for further information or online consultation! Regards . Good luck
