Yet another peeler...


My top & bottom lip has been peeling for about 8 months now. There is a little chunk of my top lip that is missing because I had bitten it. Im actively still trying to find something that works. Like everyone else, the skin forms back every 3/4 days then comes back off. Ive tried about a dozen different creams and balms so far without much help that I could see. Neosporin Lip treatment was best for me as a chapstick. I think because it was a gel not a stick, but no cure. Currently Im using "Palmer's Vitamin E Scar Serum". It was recommended on another forum. Its an oil and hasnt whitened my lips by using it. Today is the 6th day Ive been using it and so far its held the skin on my lips together. The skin feels kind of scabby, but I dont think it is noticable to other people. Im trying to keep as much skin as possible on so new healthy skin can form underneath, like it does with a normal cut/scrape. I used to get burns inside my mouth when eating hot food. This would heal as long as I didnt rip the skin back off or kept playing with it. Im using straws with my drinks, so liquid goes right to the back of my throat. I sparingly brush/floss my teeth now & take baths instead of showers to reduce any whiting of the lips. Im also avoiding hot foods too. Ive been losing weight due to skipping meals for fear of doing any more damage. I constintely suck back my saliva away from my lip. This is very difficult when Im hungry. I also started taking a garlic pills yesterday. I dont have the urge to pick or peel right now. I just want this to be done with so I can go on being "normal" again.
