Hello... I actually read that this could be due to lack of folic acid. Might try to supplement some, couldn't hurt.
Anemia is due to low iron. Lack of red meat (amonst a few other foods) can be one thing, amongst a few, that leads to anemia. To understand further, search Iron, iron rich foods and anemia.
What is anemia please tell me? Thank You
Is there no one that has this problem,I hope that i'm not alone and can't find any answers. Always Waiting
As a sidenote, anemia can be caused from a few things. Thus, my reason in telling you to do your research on the subject.
If sudden & lasting a awhile, may be do to some med reaction.
If no meds used, often is poor diet. Vitamin B deficiency/
Folic Acid anemia. Sometimes old make-up. Try vaseline to keep
soft at bed to heal. Avoid waxes like chapstick. Take a multi-
vitamin daily. Leave alone if crusting & just use vaseline w/
light powder to cover-up. Best if none.

I had wondered about this myself (concerned about anemia at one point) and in my ventures, came up the this site.
