From the last two months a white horizontal line appears on the lower lip including dryness and peeling of lips everyday. I use NMF lip balm but problems still persist. Is it something serious. Photo attached.

Looks like Cheilitis , it can have various causes like irritants, allergies, or deficiencies. Since it’s not improving with NMF lip balm, it’s best evaluated in detail.
Next Steps
I recommend an online consult to assess the pattern, triggers, and guide proper treatment.
Health Tips
Avoid licking lips and use a bland, fragrance-free lip balm frequently.
