Angular Cheilitis & Cheilosis Treatment - Tips To Treat Stomatitis & Perleche

Are you affected by angular cheilitis (also known as cheilosis, angular stomatitis or perleche)?

If you are, here are several treatment tips that you may want to consider.

Firstly, consider some known ways to treat "chapped lips" - a less severe condition caused by vitamin deficiency or inadequate moisture:

1. Consume quality supplements that include vitamins B1 and B12. For iron deficiency, you may want to consult a professional.

2. Use shea butter and olive / coconut oil and apply frequently on your lips

3. For short-term relief, consider using moisturizing lipstick or protective lip balm

On the other hand, you should consult your doctor if you have extremely painful attacks several times a year with symptoms such as deep cracks, cuts and sores around the mouth or bleeding when the mouth is opened.

If there are also signs of candida infection, the doctor will likely confirm the more serious angular cheilitis / perleche condition and will likely prescribe a 1% hydro cortisone topical cream.

Also, to prevent depositories of candida infection from accumulating in your non-metal dentures, you should soak your dentures overnight in a solution made up of 10 parts water to 1 part household bleach.

The above treatment tips had brought relief for some sufferers of angular stomatitis and cheilosis.

On the other hand, if these did not work for you, then you should really consider two lesser-known but proven natural treatment solutions.

Both eliminate angular cheilitis permanently by using common household items to isolate and kill the fungal infection.
