Well guys i just got out the shower and only the scabs turned white again so im still seeing progress :D
However i doubt the scabs i have on rite now will fall off by monday so i dont think ima be able to go to school this sememester which really sucks :| If only i had discovered this weeks ago...damnit haha
Longterm: Nah i dont think ima have to use water as a moisturizer for the rest of my life. I think once my lips are 100% healed they'll be back to normal like they were before...hopefully :) haha
Healing2021: Like i said im not 100% sure whether or not the ear drops helped me but in my opinion i think they did help. Also i think moisturizing them with water is very important, just do it every 2 hours and dont pick at your lips...even if you see dead skin just leave it and let it fall off by itself.
