Hi,


White bumps in the corner of the lips may suggest the presence of cheilitis.Cheilitis usually involves the sides of the lips and is a condition that is due to a bacterial or fungal infection.

If you frequently lick or bite your lips, use dentures,and smoke these factors increase the risk of acquiring cheilitis.

Discuss with your physician the advantages of using topical antifungal infections.Observe good dental hygiene and use lip balm with sunscreen for the lips.

Have you applied any medications on the area?

Are you skipping any meals or in any form of a diet for the moment?
