I’ve had chronic dry lips for a month now (Read)

Posted , 2 users are following.

My lips have been extremely dry (not always chapped) and sensitive for the past month now. This is even after drinking tons of water, and applying a high quality lip balm

Corners of my lips seem to always be cracking too and as soon as I drink any kind of alcohol my mouth/lips get instantly dry

Could this be a sign of diabetes (I exhibit a couple other signs but also suffer from depression)

Just started happening a month ago, in the past applying lip balm in the morning would help all day

they’re sensitive to cinnamon/sirachia sauce too

    Mine are the same way and no amount of any chap stick or lip balm I have used has helped. The only thing I have used that has helped is Vaseline. I believe mine is due to a hormonal imbalance. Best of Luck!
