I woke up this morning with really sore but little cracks at the corner of my lips. someone once told me this is a vitamin deficiency but I'm not so sure. I had a huge and very confrontational argument with someone last night and thought this might have something to do with it- like a stress related thing? Any ideas people?

You actually need to increase your vitamin C intake.

You may also be dehydrated--drink some water. Or did you eat salty or acidic foods the day before? In either case, it won't hurt you to drink some water and moisturize those lips, with Vitamin E maybe, and lay off the salty foods for a bit until they heal.

It is a Vitamin shortage. Usually vitamin D. Eat dark green vegetables and take multiple vitamins.
WE ARE WHAT WE EAT. If we don't eat healthy,
we won't be healthy.

sounds to me that you need to put chapstick on and stay out of the dryness. This time of year could do that to you. I know that my skin is chapped because of my fire stove. I would just get a good chapstick

If the herpes are on your lips then its very possible to transfer it to your toddler. Keep your purse up and go see a doctor.

it may be triggered by stress, but moreso it's an iron deficiency - also if you're eating alot of salty stuff, that's a killer too.
