What should I do if the weather is very dry in winter and my lips are easy to dry?

People who are often outdoors in winter will have chapped lips or a small amount of bleeding, which is medically called angular stomatitis. Most people who are prone to chapped lips in winter have the habit of licking their lips. In winter, when the climate is dry, the moisture in the lips will evaporate and the local humidity will decrease. When it comes to cold air, lips crack easily. After a long time, it may also cause diseases such as chronic cheilitis. Moreover, my throat is often dry and sore because I drink too little water, and it is dry in winter, so I should drink more water.

Chinese and western medicine * * * have suggestions:

1. Use lipstick. In winter, both men and women should take good care of their lips in order to spend the cold winter healthily.

2. Take B vitamins and eat more fresh vegetables.

3. Replenish water. Adequate drinking water is of great help to the balance of human functions.

4. lick your lips less. Short-term humidification will make the lip mucosa wrinkle, aggravate chapping, and in severe cases, secondary infection and swelling will occur.

5. Moisturize with oil. People can find flour oil, sesame oil or other edible oil (honey or chilblain cream can also be used) on their lips, which can play a very good moisturizing role, sometimes even better than lip balm.
