Chapped Skin Posted: 12-06-06 19:09pm
My son is always licking his upper lip and
now the skin above his lip is red and
chapped. Just in time for pictures. It
looks like a mustache. How can I get rid
of it?

My son seems to do the same thing twice a
year. In the beginning of winter and the
beginning of spring. I am really not sure
what the exact reason of why he does this
some say it's dryness and needs to drink
more fluids and other say it is a nervous
habbit. That I don't buy for the fact
that if it was nervousness then he would
do it more often for one and for the fact
that it is a lack of fluid well then why
do I still have problems with wetting the
bed. Sorry just venting a bit. The one
product that I have found that does not
burn him or leave a nasty taste in the
mouth is the new lip gloss called blistex
lip infusion. My boy loves the stuff and
uses it often because it sooths the
burning sensation for one and help them
feel moisturized without licking them so
much.
