Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: Because the weather is dry in autumn, my child's lips became dry, so they licked their upper and lower lips with their tongue. The more they licked, the drier the lips became, and the drier the lips became, the more they licked. As a result, the skin around the lips turned bright red and developed white blisters. Since my child is at school, I can't manage them there. I would like to ask everyone if you can offer some high-level advice.Duration of the current illness: About 20 days

Doctor's answer:
The child's lips are dry, which is generally related to a slight deficiency in the spleen. It can be appropriately regulated, and a temporary lip balm can be used to relieve the condition, but avoid licking the lips frequently. It is recommended to give the child some Ginseng Spleen Strengthening Pills and use a baby lip balm temporarily. Usually, this will improve. Encourage the child to drink more water and eat more green vegetables, such as carrots and green leafy greens. Consume fruits with high water content. Avoid licking the lips and eating and acidic foods. It is advisable to eat more foods rich in vitamins A, C, and E.
