Cracked Corners of Mouth - Vitamin Deficiency Or Something Else?

Cracked Corners of Mouth - Vitamin Deficiency Or Something Else

?

If you have cracked corners of mouth, a vitamin deficiency could be a contributory factor. If you have lip fissures radiating horizontally from the edges, then it is likely to be the very common condition known as Angular Cheilitis.

There can be various causes of the condition but there is one common fact-it is extremely painful and very difficult to eradicate. The most common cause is an overgrowth of bacteria on the corners of the mouth which cause cracking and splitting. This could happen due simply to pen sucking, finger biting or badly fitting dentures or braces. Many people believe that it could be a vitamin deficiency and there is evidence to suggest that a lack of iron, vitamin B12 and folic acid can all be contributory factors.

If you visit your doctor you may well be prescribed hydro cortisone cream or steroids. Mostly these are ineffective. Indeed most sufferers find that their attacks increase in severity over a period of time until it becomes a permanent feature. This is because if left untreated, the bacterial infection often becomes fungal in nature and then extremely difficult to shift.

Whatever the cause of your cracked corners of mouth-a vitamin deficiency or simply excessive drooling due to the other factors mentioned, the way to clear angular cheilitis up very quickly is to prevent oxygen hitting the area as without that, neither bacteria or fungus can thrive. Other measures, such as taking vitamin supplements or stopping the source of the moisture will help in the longer term but as you might appreciate, dietary measures could take literally months to take effect and you need to get rid of the cracked corners of mouth quickly and eliminate the pain now-not weeks or months down the line!

Of course if you suspect a vitamin deficiency is to blame, then it would be wise to take the appropriate supplements alongside any other treatment.

If you have had cracked lip corners or scabs for more than a couple of days, it is likely that the condition has taken hold.
