subject: Natural Cure For Severe Chapped Lips [print this page] Having a condition which affects the mouth can be extremely painful as it is obviously not an area we can easily cover up! We simply can't get away from the everyday activities which can cause sufferers extreme pain, such as eating, drinking and even speaking.
If you are looking for a natural cure for severe chapped lips, it is worth knowing that even when the condition appears to be very bad, the mouth has a great ability to heal itself. However, if the soreness has lasted for more than a couple of days, it is possible that the area has become infected and possibly fungal in nature. If this is the case, then you may need to consider further treatment.
There is always a cause of severe chapped lips. Sometimes it can be due to extremes of weather. For others, ill fitting dentures can trigger off a bout or even deficiencies of Vitamin B12 or Iron. Other common causes include pen sucking or finer/nail biting.
Sometimes, just eliminating the cause can help. Painting objects such as pens and fingers in an anti-nail biting solution can discourage this activity. Having ill-fitting dentures corrected can also be a simple natural cure for severe chapped lips. You can also try coating the affected area with a thin coat of petroleum jelly or unperfumed lip salve for protection from further chapping. This will also protect the lips from the air and therefore help to relieve pain.
If these measures do not help, you may wish to take action to treat the condition on the assumption that the area has become infected and fungal in nature.
Fortunately it is still possible to completely cure this condition within just 24 hours by using a very robust natural cure for severe chapped lips which is guaranteed to work. By this time tomorrow, the pain and soreness will be completely gone-indeed most people notice a significant improvement within a couple of hours. Using everyday ingredients which you are likely to have to hand, you will find it hard to believe the simplicity of this remedy is and yet how powerful and fast-acting it is.
