Ever been tested for any allergies or for any intolerance?

IgG , IgE ?

A classic type I allergy is when the immune system produces specific IgE antibodies (immune globulins of the subclass E). These antibodies lead to an immediate allergic reaction.

A type III food allergy is when the immune system produces specific IgG antibodies (immune globulins of the subclass G). These antibodies can lead to inflammatory processes.

The symptoms appear up to three days after the consumption of a trigger food or cosmetic, or anything else.

In most cases, EC is triggered by a type III food allergy , (immune globulins of the subclass G).


Kids often inherit allergy sensitivities from mother.

If both you and your child have peeling lips, this is a very strong evidence of both of you suffering from
a type III allergy, and that is most likely some food or some cosmetics.


Ever tried to eliminate all gluten or all milk or all grains or all soy from your diet ? Or all cosmetics ?
Toothpaste ?


How old is your child ?

At what age did you first notice the dry lips symptoms ?

At what age did you first start feeding solid foods to your child ?

At what age did you first start feeding grains to your child ?

At what age did you first start feeding gluten to your child ?
Cow milk ?
Formula ?

Is there any correlation between some of those ages ?

Any correlation between the Age of getting dry lips and the age of introducing something new in baby diet, like grains, cow milk, soy, sugar, corn, gluten, toothpaste, shampoo, soap, different laundry detergent, moving to a different place to live?


If you can figure out the correct answer to some of those questions, you may be able to figure out what is the EC trigger for your child.





A type III food allergy is linked to high intestinal permeability also called leaky gut often caused by dysbiosis, linked to gluten and grains intolerance, milk and Sugar intolerance, candida etc.

I also started with the peeling triangular area on my upper lip. It didn't affect my lower lip until I was in college.

My condition also started with triangular area on my upper lip.I am wondering why the triangular area.

Well since he's a baby, maybe leaving it alone and moisturizing his lips when you notice them dry is the best soloution.

I say this because most people who have EC including myself are too worried about social pressures of leaving our lips alone in case their is "build up".

i think the doctor is right that it is dehydration. i cured my ec of 18 years by stopping licking and using only water all day to moisturize them. i dont recommend using any products because none ever worked or helped me. the only thing that worked was long soakings in water and leaving them alone. alot of people have the mindset that saliva is good for the lips because it feels good. soaking in water, which can be done simply with a technique when drinking, will cause the scab to fall off naturally without biting it or whatever. oh and btw, there are quite a number of trolls on this site who choose to try and discredit my every post, so just be forewarned and take my information at your will.
