(Continued) …of my lips with antibacterial soap and patting the area dry with a paper towel, I would use my finger or a Q-tip to apply the baking soda on top of a layer of petroleum jelly so it would stick to the wound, but it works just as well pressed into the open wounds by itself. It burns like all hell and it has an unpleasant salty taste, but it is totally worth it. It took couple flare-ups over the course of a month for it to take, but I haven’t had any problems for over a year now.
Im Sorry to hear that you had it for that long but good thing you figured out what works best for you, everyone's different. I couldnt imagine having it for more than a few weeks.
I suffered with angular cheilitis for almost four years. In that time I tried a lot of different things to treat it, including various anti-fungal creams. All of them were all able to reduce soreness and close the cuts, but they never fully cured me. I read on a forum that baking soda worked well to heal the wounds by sucking up the moisture like a salt and essentially starving the infection so I began using it on the corners of my mouth. After washing the inside and outside... (See next post)
i need help i think i have augular chites but dont no for sure i dont see any splits at the corner of my mouth think god but my lips are my dry and im getting kindve scared cause my lips dry up quicker for some reason when i youst to lick them they never dryed up so quick this started 2 days ago someone pls answer cause i dont want to die or nothing and im really srcared anybody plz pls help
Do you know how to get rid of the dark patches on the corners of lips after angular cheilitis? You are lucky to not have that post inflammatory hyperpigmentation....I have gotten rid of the cuts, but the dark brown, ugly patches aren't going away. Please reply if you know something.
Ok, I have angular cheilitis but have no idea whether it's a bacterial or fungal infection (or both at the same time, yikes!). Antibacterial ointment gets rid of it really fast (in like 2 days), but then it comes back in a few days after I stop using it. Guess it's time to try the antifungal cream.
@dariajelonek So ive had this dam annoying crap for maybe like a week now and ive been applying lip balm on it at all times foolishly thinking thatd help.. didnt do enough research. anyway pointless crap... main point: is antifungal cream good for this cause i have that so.. should i use it?
@Number1Rok lip balm keeps the moisture and the fungi actually spreads! and it prolongs the lifespan of it! :) so keep it dry and just apply the antifungal cream! if it burns, take it off immediately! It shouldnt burn at all!
@MrFreeSpirt did anything work for you? I have had these dark corners for YEARS. My dermatologist is making me buy stuff and nothing is lightening these awful dark patches!
can you please help idk what to do i know i have this but it seems like it spread and know its crusty bumps all around my mouth! its not a cold sore or fever blister and i have benn using abreva and it hasnt worker please help!
I had angular cheletis for 2 Fking Years! I did this and it over! Seriously!... after a week its almost healed! I felt a little weird buying vaginal cream being a guy, but hey... totally worth it. Didn't do the B vitamins, or any of the other stuff just the vag cream. TOTALLY WORKED! p.s. don't eat the vag cream its gross.
a missing tooth also causes it. i was getting crowns last year, and went a couple of months without front teeth. As soon my teeth were gone in Dec. 2010, it came back. it also tends to disappear in the hot summer.
so you say keep it dry.. but if you keep it dry wouldn't it crack more like when you talk and yawn? is there anything that can be most to keep it from cracking but will heal it?
Thanks so much for uploadin this! I had this for like 2 months...I tried tea tree oil & daktarin, they weren't working! Then I saw this & got some canesten...the next day it was so much better...now..3 days later it's gone for good! No more disgusting cracks! YAYYYYY! I so happy now! TY so much! U rock! :D xoxoxox
I really hope this works. I'm a 14 year old boy and i have this. I feel like crying. I've had this on and off since i was 12. I went to a dermatologist and she said it was because i drool in my sleep. I do not only have the white, cracked, crusty corners of the mouth, but large red inflammated circles around the area that are the worst! People at school ask me if i have herpes and i stayed home from school today because it was terrible today. I'm scared to kiss my girlfriend because she may thi
THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! I've been suffering for 5 days, the first 3 I tried everything from AC Vinegar, Tea Tree Oil, Rubbing Alc., Hydrogren Perox., to Pet. Jelly. NOTHING WORKED it made it worse. I came across your video (thanks for being free!)&since Sat.Night I've been healing incredibly, instead of raised, itchy, red, noticeable cracks. I am slightly pink w/dead skin peeling off. I can talk/smile, everything! I use Clotrimazole 3-day cream Day two&almost completely gone. U Saved Me
@brimariesmiles awe! YAAAY ! :D im so happy to hear that <3 Its my pleasure! Youre very welcome sweetheart! Spread the word! Thanks for letting us all know!
just watched your vid and wish ad seen it a few days ago as i had tried everything, just seemed to make it worse, fingers crossed hope this works for me!
@bddblade because your body i lacking Vitamin B and then your immune system becomes weaker. Im not too sure in depth how it occurs but yeast doesnt just occur in the Vagina :)
@bddblade you can have cracks on ur lips just from being dry and you can be drooling at night in bed...the bacteria from ur mouth is in ur drool and gets into the cracks of ur lips and the bacteria/fungus grows.
I cant believe how common tis is and how few people know what this is!! Thanks for the info!!!!! Had to use some prescription cream,and it cleared up almost overnight...
@obadets3 check your diet. Are you drinking through a straw? try eating smaller things that dont get the corners wet. and you dont open your mouth too wide for it to crack open. Make sure its dry at all times and only apply the cream nothing else. Take vitamin b complex or vitamin b 2 and dont pick at it. :( You might have herpes 1 and break out in cold sores.... if possible, get checked out!
Hi. bought the Vagisil and have been using it for a day and a half. Now it seems to be getting red and it burns. Is that supposed to happen? What should I do? Please write back soon!(:
@DenverBroncos9798 I would still give it a try for sure! im not sure if it would help but most likely because Its a yeast infection and the ingredient neutralizes it
What worked for me was I bought the antifungal jock itch cream with Clotrimazole in it.......after I put that on I wait about 5 minutes and put the hydrocortozone 1% on I've been doing this for a week now.....I also went and bought some B vitamins supercomlex.........I also use vaseline on my lips cause my lips have been peeling......I only had splits on one side of my mouth but it has healed now and I can open my mouth real wide without it cracking again but i'm still paranoid it may crack
@DeathrowRecords1995 your right! keep it on all day! at night put twice as much.. sometimes during the morning let it be dry or if your going out.. :)
@dariajelonek hey uhm i am keeping it dry but it makes it worse.... because i got it because of dry lips so i gotta keep putting vaseline. but when i keep it dry it just starts cracking up more... do i continue to keep it dry regardless?
I posted here about a week ago, and just wanted to return to say this really worked!! I got Clotrimazole (aka Lotrimin but mine was just a generic brand) and that cleared everything in 2-3 days. Just using this for one day showed noticeable improvements. Like someone else said, I also used the hydrocortisone 1% and that helped a lot with the itching. THANK YOU so much for this video!
I had a similar problem, but also a bit different. The corners of my mouth started out cracked and had the symptoms, but after a few days of applying vaseline religiously my lips were fine but the area around the corners was like a rash and had itchy red bumps. I tried cold sore treatments, vagisil, hydration therapy lip balm, even acne cream (I thought it may reduce the redness/swelling) but it didn't work. I found this video and now I'm gonna try hydrocortisone 1% and lotrimin, thanks!
Also, a friend of mine recommended Blistex (make sure you use the ointment, because they also make regular lip balm). She said it helped with her own red and itchy bumps on her lips/cheeks. I haven't tried it yet, but I figured I'd share in case someone was still looking for another option
@xfc04 i would think that blistex would spread it cause its oil based.. It wouldhelp with the cracked lips but wouldnt heal it. I have tried... but it didnt help me. maybe it helps others?
@dariajelonek umm yeah just the canesten but i realized that you need to make sure you still use this for atleast 1-2 months even after it looks like its gone because i stopped for a few days and it returned so yeah thanks so much!
I tried several things but what really worked for me were these things (they are all over the counter but pretty inexpensive): lotrimin, 1% hydrocortisone cream, CeraVe moisturizing lotion, and aquafor healing ointment. Apply lotrimin first then hydrocortisone, then CeraVe during the day. At night, apply the lotrimin, hydrocortisone then aquafor. This is what a really good dermatologist in town recommended and mine was gone in 2 and a half days.
i feel like only old people in retirement homes have this problem ): where i live i'm the only person who has it so i got to school so embarassed. i'm leaving on a trip in two days and i really want to get rid of this overnight. any suggestions? ): please
@Medgy26 Get vagisil or canesten!!! Drink through a straw. Take Vitamin B2 or Vitamin B complex. Dont lick the open sores. Keep it as dry as possible during the day.and put lots of cream at night. :)
i used triple antibiotic ointment and it healed but seemed to always return in about 2 week. I tried lotrimin but didn't seen to help me. So i went to target and got a generic brand vagasil called miconazole.. healed for now ...
@wisconsinhippy yay congrats! :) Make sure to take your vitamin B complex! and get plenty of sleep. and dont stress too much. At all if possible! :) <3 Peace n Love
Hey there, thanks for the advice, I did a bit more research and any cream with miconazole or miconazole nitrate will do the trick. In most or Europe it's only available by prescription but it's very commonly prescribed for tinea cruris (jock itch) so if the guys watching out there don't want to ask for a feminine product, you can ask for something to treat jock itch instead. It started working within 24 hours. Great advice! Dave, Dublin, Ireland.
I havent ever used canesten but I found through trying out a few different home remedies that rubbing in Manuka honey 15 into the corners of my mouth several times and day and before going to bed at night helped the sores more than anything else-with regular applications It cleared up within 2 days and soothes the discomfort immediately. You only need a thin layer so when you put it on during the day it doesnt really show up and tasted pretty good too!
@lana4581 I love Manuka Honey! I eat it all the time, Perhaps that was part of the cure!? Its super expensive, but so great. Thanks for the tip! :) Next time I get it (hopefully nevery again) but if it happens, I will definetly try this out! :) Thanks lovely!
@Jennamarie088 yeah you rub it in. and then put a good amount on top. Mine didnt tingle. If you get an irritation discontinue using it... because maybe your allergic to something in it? Try using Canesten.. see if that would tingle... :) <3
If you up your consumption of protein and fat, especially from animal foods, and, minimize consumption of acids and simple carbohydrates(sugars, fruits, yogurt, confections, starches, etc), the cracks should heal up.
The cracks are caused by imbalance in your diet. Too much carbohydrates and acids. I can make it happen, and I can heal it, purely with simple fundamental diet.
OMG THANKYOU SOO MUCH :( iv suffered for 2 years now :( having to wake up every morning and yawning and just even hearing the cracking sound when i opened my mouth :( it came to the point where i didn't want to wake up in the morning (tearing up :'( ) i REALLY hope this works and i promise ill let you know <3 thankyou soo much!
@jbrules1026 I just did some research... an it says that in the USA they dont have it.. .which is weird because they have it in Europe!? Anyways I searched and found this...
Canesten is a brand name apparently not available in the USA. The active ingredient is clotrimazole. This is used in a variety of products sold in your area at most major pharmacies.
@jbrules1026 honestly. I am not too sure, but i looked at them all and Mycelex looked the most gentle to me.. but i am sure they are all gentle <3 as long as they have the clotrimazole ingredient then you should be good! Good luck, please let me know! Il pray for you too ! I know it sucks, itl pass. just make sure to keep it as dry as possible (in between cream times) and drink through a straw and take your vitamins <3 Peace and love.
@jbrules1026 Hey I just spoke with my mom and she said she bougth some in the US a few years ago at Wal-Mart. It isnt a perscription drug so It should just be on the shelf. Go check it out before you purchase the other stuff! :) <3
@PompeyLad1996 Canesten its in a purple little tube. If you search it on google and look at the images, the second picture is what it looks like :) Or if you cant find that, then use Vagisil it does the same thing! :) All the best <3 Let me know how it works!

I tried several things but what really worked for me were these things (they are all over the counter but pretty inexpensive): lotrimin, 1% hydrocortisone cream, CeraVe moisturizing lotion, and aquafor healing ointment. Apply lotrimin first then hydrocortisone, then CeraVe during the day. At night, apply the lotrimin, hydrocortisone then aquafor. This is what a really good dermatologist in town recommended and mine was gone in 2 and a half days.

@Medgy26 Get vagisil or canesten!!! Drink through a straw. Take Vitamin B2 or Vitamin B complex. Dont lick the open sores. Keep it as dry as possible during the day.and put lots of cream at night. :)

i used triple antibiotic ointment and it healed but seemed to always return in about 2 week. I tried lotrimin but didn't seen to help me. So i went to target and got a generic brand vagasil called miconazole.. healed for now ...

Hey there, thanks for the advice, I did a bit more research and any cream with miconazole or miconazole nitrate will do the trick. In most or Europe it's only available by prescription but it's very commonly prescribed for tinea cruris (jock itch) so if the guys watching out there don't want to ask for a feminine product, you can ask for something to treat jock itch instead. It started working within 24 hours. Great advice! Dave, Dublin, Ireland.

I havent ever used canesten but I found through trying out a few different home remedies that rubbing in Manuka honey 15 into the corners of my mouth several times and day and before going to bed at night helped the sores more than anything else-with regular applications It cleared up within 2 days and soothes the discomfort immediately. You only need a thin layer so when you put it on during the day it doesnt really show up and tasted pretty good too!

@lana4581 I love Manuka Honey! I eat it all the time, Perhaps that was part of the cure!? Its super expensive, but so great. Thanks for the tip! :) Next time I get it (hopefully nevery again) but if it happens, I will definetly try this out! :) Thanks lovely!
dariajelonek 10 months ago
do you just rub the vagisil on the corners? and is it suppose to tingle? lol reply please. (:
Jennamarie088 10 months ago
@Jennamarie088 yeah you rub it in. and then put a good amount on top. Mine didnt tingle. If you get an irritation discontinue using it... because maybe your allergic to something in it? Try using Canesten.. see if that would tingle... :) <3

If you up your consumption of protein and fat, especially from animal foods, and, minimize consumption of acids and simple carbohydrates(sugars, fruits, yogurt, confections, starches, etc), the cracks should heal up.
The cracks are caused by imbalance in your diet. Too much carbohydrates and acids. I can make it happen, and I can heal it, purely with simple fundamental diet.

@dariajelonek I went to Rite Aid and they never even heard of it. how is it spelled
jbrules1026 10 months ago
@jbrules1026 I just did some research... an it says that in the USA they dont have it.. .which is weird because they have it in Europe!? Anyways I searched and found this...
Canesten is a brand name apparently not available in the USA. The active ingredient is clotrimazole. This is used in a variety of products sold in your area at most major pharmacies.
In the U.S.
* Clotrim Antifungal
* Cruex Prescription Strength
* Lotrimin
* Lotrimin AF
* Mycelex
Try ebay too!

@dariajelonek Thank you, Is there one that would be better than another?
jbrules1026 10 months ago
@jbrules1026 honestly. I am not too sure, but i looked at them all and Mycelex looked the most gentle to me.. but i am sure they are all gentle <3 as long as they have the clotrimazole ingredient then you should be good! Good luck, please let me know! Il pray for you too ! I know it sucks, itl pass. just make sure to keep it as dry as possible (in between cream times) and drink through a straw and take your vitamins <3 Peace and love.
