"I have cuts in the corners of my lips that are a little painful. What should I do?"

If you have cuts on the corners of your lips that are causing some discomfort, you can try using a simple skin moisturizer like Vaseline or Prevex. If the cuts don't heal within a week with this treatment, you may need to switch to a mild cortisone cream, available at pharmacies, to be applied twice a day for at least 4 days.
