How to treat cracked lips

I believe many people have had this experience. In daily life, you may accidentally bite your lips. If cracked lips are not treated promptly, they may lead to problems such as infection. How should I treat chapped lips?

1: If the wound on the lips is not deep and there is not much bleeding, you do not need to go to the hospital for debridement. You can disinfect it yourself with iodine tincture and take oral laxative and anti-inflammatory drugs to prevent wound infection. There is no need to intervene too much, the lips have a strong healing ability.

1: After your lips are broken, you should pay more attention to your diet. You should eat light and nutritious food, drink plenty of water, eat more vegetables and fruits, avoid spicy and irritating foods, and pay attention to oral hygiene. This will be more conducive to wound healing.

1: The lips have a very strong ability to regenerate themselves. If your lips are broken, as long as it does not cause infection, they can heal slowly on their own and will not cause much impact on your life. Especially when the mucous membrane on the inside of the lip is broken, it heals relatively quickly! But it is easy to form ulcers and cause pain!

1: Many times, cracked lips are caused by getting too hot. At this time, you can take some anti-inflammatory medicine or drink some anti-inflammatory tea to help the lips heal. For example, soaking sterculia lychnophora in water can help eliminate internal heat and accelerate the healing of lip wounds.

1: If the cracks on the outside of your lips are caused by dryness and lack of water, you can apply a layer of sesame oil on your lips to moisturize them. Sesame oil has anti-inflammatory and wound healing effects.

1: If the inside of the lip is scratched and an ulcer is accidentally formed, you can directly use chopsticks to dip in honey and apply it on the ulcer. It can not only relieve pain but also promote the healing of the ulcer.

If you tear it by hand, you can use small scissors to avoid tearing your lips. The correct way is to apply a hot towel to your lips for 3 to 5 minutes, then gently brush off the dead skin on your lips with a soft brush, and finally apply lip balm. In addition, people who always have dry lips should not wear lipstick. If the chapped and scabby symptoms on the lips do not heal for a long time, you should go to the hospital for diagnosis and treatment in time.
