Question : my lips are chapped from long time and I have tried all the solutions to get this healed but no improvement. I used home remedies and also apply lip balm but no improvement.
Brief Answer:
triamcinolone oral gel
Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query
You can apply triamcinolone oral gel on the lips.
It is a mild steroid and hence reduces inflammation and prevents cracking of lips.
I usually advice this to my patients and they get good result with it.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you
