Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have blackening around my mouth for two months, and it is not fading. I went to a Dermatologist, who prescribed me a deep white cream. But it is not working.
What should I do?
Please help me.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have read your query and can understand your concern.
Keep applying that cream, plus start taking tablet Folic acid twice a day for 10 days, then take it once a day for the next two weeks. Cranking around lip corners occurs due to a deficiency of multivitamins, folic acid, and the winter season can also be a reason. As far as home remedies are concerned, put olive oil on your finger and put it around your lips so that soreness is reduced. Do it before sleeping for a week. And above all, start drinking water, like 1 litre per day mandatory.
I hope this answers your query.
Please let me know if I can assist you further.
Thank you.
