What can I do about my little brothers extremely chapped lips?

hes 6 his lips are always REALLY chapped. like it looks painfully chapped. what are some good remedies for this?What can I do about my little brothers extremely chapped lips?
Recurrent application of Carmex, Vaseline, or Chapstick. This must be applied after eating, drinking, or brushing ones teeth.





Also encourage him not to lick his lips. Many kids this age do. Also ensure he is well hydrated, as when one is not, the mucous membranes are the first to show it!





Good Luck!What can I do about my little brothers extremely chapped lips?
1. Our grandmothers used goose or duck fat to facilitate the healing of chapped lips. Those are truly wonderful remedies, so next time when you are making a roast duck with apples, do not discard the fat, but keep it in the fridge as a traditional medicine. If you do not have any, do not despair - coconut oil, or olive oil, or shea butter, will work great, as well. Apply frequently until your lips heal.





2. Do not use any gel, balm, or lipstick that contain alcohol or petroleum products - they for sure will worsen the condition and will make your chapped lips feel even dryer and more painful. Use only natural remedies. A good rule is to put on your lips only edible ingredients (this rule also works well for any other body care products, because the skin rapidly absorbs all contents of lotions and creams, both good and bad ). In other words, if you cannot eat it - do not put it either on your lips or on your skin!





3. Abstain from eating any hot, spicy, or salty foods for as long as your lips are still dry, cracked, and painful.





4. Avoid going outside if the weather is dry and windy. If you must, use a generous amount of natural oil to protect your lips from unfriendly environment.





5. Be patient. It may take up to a week for your lips to heal completely. In the meanwhile, be sweet and compassionate to yourself and make your boyfriend prepare a comforting dessert with a delicious and relaxing warm drink. Indulge in pampering your taste buds and forget for awhile about your chapped lips! :)





i just c/p this just use what's relevant
actually as a medical student going into dermatology i can assure u the best thing for your childs lips are 1. Dr. Dans lip balm (medically formulated for the worst lips) 2) make sure he is well hydrated and 3) tell him to lick his lips as little as possible. you will probably have to order dr. dans offline somewhere so while waiting i would recommend burts bees or vasoline until you can find dr. dans. good luck
I find that vaseline works the best. Apply the vaseline throughout the whole day for the next 2 or 3 days. Tell him not to stretch the lips and to leave the lips alone.
you should put some vaseline on his lips i had chapped lips like 2 weeks ago and this worked



Well I use burt's bees. Just apply a ton of it overnight %26amp; just keep redoing it.
