bothersome mouth corner crack

[Guest guest]

Debi,

This could be related to a riboflavin deficiency. That is vitamin B2. You

might want to get both a B complex and a riboflavin supplement..

If you are getting cold sores, too, you might look at lysine, an amino acid

that helps to quell herpetic infections which is generally what causes cold

sores. I recently had this corner crack and I was taking riboflavin, but

it wasn't going away, so I took lysine, thinking I had gotten too much

arginine lately, and that change is what worked for me.

Thanks to everyone for all your suggestions. Tomorrow when I go to

Walmart I will see what's available. May decide to get a few different

kinds to try out.

bothersome mouth corner crack

Hi Fibromites,

The past several days I have had a crack at the left corner of my mouth

were lips join. Have been using Chapstick but that's not helping much.

Does anyone know of something else that might help? Seems I remember B

vitamins might have something to do with this. Any feedback appreciated.
