Go to the health food store and buy a tube of Calendula Ointment.
Calendula comes as a cream, a gel and an ointment, but I got the ointment since it has a petroleum base, and that form was reccamended for chapping. It works. After an hour my lips were back, still a little infammation on the skin around my lips but my lips were back to normal and the cracking and peeling were gone. By the 3rd day all the redness was gone. I have been using it for almost a week now and apply it frequently throughout the day. I am hoping that in a few weeks I won't have to keep using the ointment, but in the meantime it is the only thing that has worked, after trying everything...neosporin, cortisone.
Calendula works and I have to say that this has always helped my skin ailments. It is anti-fungal, anti-viral, anti-inflammatory. In the past whenever I have used Calendula, it has healed the condition overnight. I am also taking Vitamin B Complex cause Cheilitis can come from a deficiency of vitamin B2.
I have a question though...my cheilitis came with cold sore attacks also. Has anyone downloaded the online book "Freedom from Cold Sores in 3 days?" Let me know if anyone knows anything about this and what the healing method is.
