Crusty, Yellow With Pus, Itchy And Sore Corners Of Mouth. No Help From Creams. Suggest Remedy
Hi, about two weeks ago I ate a corn chip that was a bit big for my mouth and it cut the corners. They were a bit sore so I used some Lucas PawPaw ointment and it seemed to stop the pain. Four days ago I woke up to swollen lips, looked like I had a trout pout, my corners were all red and itchy. I ve tried the pawpaw ointment, a cold sore cream called Virasolve and now a Blistex product made for cold sores. My corners are crusty, yellow and have pus, they re itchy and sore. It s embarrassing! What can I do to get rid of whatever is wrong? - Tess

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having Angular stomatitis.
Go for one antibiotic medicine course.
Take some B.complex capsules.
Apply antibiotic cream locally after proper cleaning.
While taking something by mouth, do not wide open your mouth.
Ok and take care.
