Chronic recurring cheilitis treatment, now managed like this~

I first had cheilitis two years ago.

Injections, medicine, and ointments at the dermatologist's office

I received these three prescriptions.

Even after treatment for cheilitis, the patient is still receiving treatment as cheilitis recurred.

The season was spring

I was walking with my child and my lips felt so hot.

My lips are originally dry

I thought it would be okay if I applied lip balm.

But after a few days, my lips were covered with white dead skin cells.

I went to a dermatologist and they said I had cheilitis.

Medications and injections for the treatment of cheilitis

And I was prescribed an ointment.

I got a lot better just one day after going to the hospital.

Within a few days, the dead skin cells will all peel off.

It seemed like things were returning to normal.

Now I think my cheilitis is completely cured.

 

But the seasons change

If something stresses you out

I got cheilitis again.

Even the doctor said

Once cheilitis occurs,

Even after the treatment for cheilitis is over

You said it could appear multiple times.

 

In my case, the symptoms were as follows.

After dead skin cells are formed and fall off,

It's swollen and red

What causes cheilitis?

Even with spicy food or cosmetics like lipstick

You said it could happen

So, the lifestyle habits to treat cheilitis are

Avoid spicy foods such as mala tang

Using old cosmetics or

The rim that I have used many times

You said that using it often is not good.

 

It's been three years since I started treatment for cheilitis.

I also have my own know-how

It's gotten to a manageable level.

 

Once you have cheilitis,

Go straight to the dermatologist and get a prescription for ointment and medication.

I take the medicine twice a day.

When symptoms improve, the dosage may be reduced.

No matter how dry my lips are

Apply ointment rather than lip balm

Wait for it to settle.

 

Also, the doctor said that he treated cheilitis

There was a part you emphasized

If you have a habit of licking your lips

He said that if I just fix that, things will get a lot better.

I was in that exact same situation.

I think it's a habit that developed because my lips were sore.

I'm putting the tips you gave me into practice now.

 

It's a disease that has been bothering me for many years, recurring many times.

As a result of collecting methods and information for treating cheilitis

Now the treatment period is also shorter

I feel a bit more comfortable now that things have become manageable.

I think there are people who suffer from cheilitis like me, so I'm sharing information on how to treat it.
