I'm generally quite healthy, eating an abundance of whole vegetables and fruits, lean poultry and occasionally fish, no processed sugars, honey or maple syrup. I use some stevia, and do drink a fair amount of milk. I've developed some weird chapped lips, though, and nothing seems to work. They began as redness in the corner of the mouth, now have spread to both lips, including the corners. Makes me look like a bit of a clown. Blistex in the tube is keeping them supple and helping them hurt less, but they look just dreadful! I've tried Burts Bees marsh mallow salve (since marsh mallow is supposed to be good on sores). Anyone else have (and solve) this kind of problem? It seems a little trivial to go to the doctor for. Perhaps it's an allergy of some sort...

if the redness is tingly, then its definitely some sort of allergy. try changing your eating habits to find out what it is
