Hello,
Thanks for the query,

it's good that you are applying a lip balm that suits your lips.

Home remedies like application of butter helps in dry lips.

Avoid lip smacking, it actually increases the severity.

I would like to know, if you are taking any other medication for any disease.

Lip fissuring is a common side effect of many drugs.

Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.

you can ask a direct question to me on this forum, following the below link.
