What Can Cause Lips To Be Crusty?
My 8 year old had pink lips a few days ago. They are now looking crusty. Accompanying complaints have been minimal. A day or two prior she was whingy with cold symptoms and 99 degree F fever but never developed into anything more... except the red lips that are now crusty.
