What are the symptoms of lip dermatitis?

Lip eczema can affect your top lip, bottom lip or both. It may also spread to the skin around your lips. Rarely, it invades the inner mucous membrane of your mouth. Some people don’t have lip irritation for weeks or months, then symptoms flare up and get worse.

Lip dermatitis can make your lips:

• Cracked or fissured.
• Dry.
• Itchy.
• Red.
• Scaly.
• Sore.
