What to do if your baby's lips are cracked and bleeding:

Chronic cheilitis is a chronic, nonspecific inflammatory lesion of the lips, which is mostly caused by various long-term and continuous stimuli, such as dryness and cold, and especially related to bad habits such as licking and biting the lips. When you lick your lips with your tongue, due to the dry air outside, the moisture brought by the saliva will not only evaporate quickly, but will also take away the little moisture that already exists on the lips, causing a vicious cycle of licking more and more, which makes the lips drier. In severe cases, it may even cause pigmentation on the skin at the corners of the mouth.

In addition, lips are prone to scabs in autumn, which is also related to the bad habit of licking lips. Since saliva contains a variety of digestive enzymes, after the saliva on the lips evaporates, these large molecular proteins will remain on the lips and form a scab together with the shed cells on the lips. Since the tissue under the scab is incomplete, if it is torn off forcibly, it will cause more local exudation and thus form more scabs.

In fact, chapped lips are a common symptom in autumn and winter, and can be prevented and treated by adjusting diet and daily habits.

First, eat more fresh vegetables, such as bean sprouts, rapeseed, cabbage, white radish, etc. to increase the intake of B vitamins.

Second, replenish sufficient water in time. Adequate drinking water is very helpful for the balance of human body functions and can effectively prevent chapped lips.

Third, both men and women should use lip balm to protect their lips, and try to choose colorless lip balm with less irritating ingredients. For people with allergies, applying sesame oil or honey to the lips with a cotton swab can also have a good moisturizing effect.

Fourth, try to avoid external stimuli such as wind and sun, and you can wear a mask to protect yourself.

Fifth, correct bad habits such as licking and biting lips.
