Hi Dear

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have hyperpigmentation around lips which seems to be due to caused by excessive exposure to the UV rays and excessive licking of lips along with dry climatic condition , which remove the natural moist layer from the lips. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to use petroleum jelly , drink lots of water ,avoid to stay in dry environment for longer period. Use lip balm which can be directly applied rather than if you use finger it will cause spreading of infection again and again whenever you will apply with finger. Visit dermatologist once and get it examined if symptoms keeps on persisting and get it examined and start treatment after proper prescription. Avoid using creams containing high steroid content ,wash your face with mild soap twice a day and avoid licking your lips.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
