Exfoliative Cheilitis - Cure, Treatment & Medicines

 

Hey there!   you are here just because you are also suffering from a severe and life-threatening disease known as Exfoliative cheilitis and like others who are suffering from this disease,  you are also searching for remedies and cures.

So you are at the right place, I have my personal experience with this very frustrating and life-ending disease, life-ending in the sense, it doesn't harm your body or you will die because of this disease.

 But somewhere we all know who is suffering from this cursed disease it makes us mentally depressed and also somewhere it forces us to end everything at once because this disease is really frustrating and painful.

Many people say this disease isn't curable, some say it is curable so today in this post we will discuss whether  EC is really curable or not and if it is then what are the remedies and medicines that we can use to make ourselves better.

Is Exfoliative cheilitis curable?

Well, I can't exactly say if  EC  is curable or not but yes if you are strong enough and mentally prepared to defeat EC then you can definitely make it better than ever, and eventually, you can cure this disease permanently. 

There are many examples who successfully cured themselves of severe Exfoliative cheilitis, and if they can cure themselves then why can't you? 

Before we go further I want to make all of you aware that the treatment of EC takes a long time. It is a long-term based disease that completely depends on your mental strength and some changes to your daily routine along with some medicines.

So prepare yourself for long-term treatment. 

What are the Cures and medications for Exfoliative Cheilitis?

The cure and medication start with various factors and end up with keep trying different suitable remedies for the cure of EC. 

1 . Your daily Routine 

You have to change your daily routine. This includes brushing time, along with the type of toothpaste you are using. Yes, you heard right. Toothpaste is considered one of the possible reasons for the development of EC disease. 

So if you are using any kind of toothpaste just replace it with normal Colgate toothpaste. Please note that in the Colgate toothpaste category, you have to use the normal one, without any added flavours. Just simple Colgate. See the picture above for reference.

2. Change your brushing time 

If you having the medium type of EC not lesser not severe then I will suggest you not to brush just after you wake up from the bed. If on brushing your lips get exfoliate in the morning then you definitely should change your brush timing. 

I know everyone has to take their morning meals/breakfast so without brushing how it is possible? But if you have to cure yourself from this disease you have to take some steps very different from the normal lifestyle and that's the only solution to get rid of Exfoliative Cheilitis

So next time when you wake up from the bed don't brush your teeth immediately,  instead just use some water to clean up your mouth and spit it out. Then take your meals/breakfast as usual and after 3 to 4 hours you can brush your teeth as normal.

This step is necessary because water really affects our lip's condition and makes it more worst. If we keep our lips in contact with water frequently. Therefore avoid washing lips again and again.

3. Remain Hydrated 

Water is considered one of the best natural remedies to cure most of the skin diseases. Even all doctors suggest drinking plenty of water every day this keeps you healthy and helps to prevent most of the diseases. So try to drink as much as water you can throughout a single day. It will definitely help to improve the condition of the lips to better. 

Avoid/Stop doing these things 

1. Lips licking 
2. Lips sucking 
3. Lips biting. 
4. Lips peeling 

You shouldn't bite, suck, or lick your lips as it dries up your lips more and makes the condition worst than ever. Since when you lick your lips you,  just put your saliva on the lips to hydrate them, but in turn after few moments that saliva dries up making the lips skin dry at the same time and lips start seeming chapped more than it was, actually before you licked your lips.

You should not peel off the dry skin cells from your lips as well. Let the dry skin cells come off by themselves, generally, when the dry cells get loosened enough they come of from the lips during bathing or brushing. So that's a better way than peeling it by yourself. Avoid doing this thing immediately. 

Medicines for the cure of EC

So now let's come up to the main part of this cure that is medicine. As medicines are the only thing which is made for the word "disease" itself.

So there are not any huge amount of medicines, with any side effects. I will share general, and herbal medicines, which are actually allopathic but their ingredients are 100% natural, with natural vitamins, minerals, and fish oil.

Don't worry about any side effects as these are just capsules of vitamins, minerals, and fish oil, which improve the skin and helps to cure the Exfolitavie Cheilitis cells. I personally use them and got very good results within 2 months.

1.  PRIMOSA 1000 

The Primosa 1000 Capsule is a rich source of GLA which promotes healthy skin and hormonal balance. This is for women only as it helps with irregular menstruation and infertility. More than that, it is very useful in EC as it contains fish oil that is considered very good for the skin. 

MECHANISM OF ACTION OF PRIMOSA 1000MG CAPSULES: 

The therapeutic activity of evening primrose oil is attributed to the direct action of its essential fatty acids on immune cells as well as to an indirect effect on the synthesis of eicosanoids. The essential fatty acids found in evening primrose oil are involved in the biosynthesis of prostaglandin.

2. Baxton 5g

The primary composition for this medicine is Benfotiamine 1.5 MG, Choline 25 MG, Citrus bioflavonoids 20 MG, Elemental copper 0.5 MG, Gingko biloba 10 MG, Ginseng 42.5 MG, Grape seed extract 15 MG, Green tea powder 10 MG, Lutein 250 MCG, Mixed carotene 11.33 MG, Niacinamide 20 MG, Omega-3 fatty acid 150 MG, Piperine 5 MG, Potassium 4 MG, Tin 10 MCG, Vanadium 10 MCG, Wheat germ oil 25 MG.

Lips ointment and lip balm.

There is lip ointment and a  lip balm that will help  to heal the lips. You just have to make sure that how you will use them so here I will guide how to use these ointments and lip balms and what are there benefits in EC.

1. Mometasone FUROATE Ointment

This medication is used to treat skin conditions such as eczema, psoriasis, allergies, and rash. Mometasone decreases swelling (inflammation), itching, and redness. Mometasone is a medium-strength corticosteroid. This medication is available in several forms including cream, ointment, and lotion (solution). Your doctor will choose the type of product based on the skin condition/area of the body being treated.

Applying mometasone ointment reduces the redness, swelling, and dryness in the lips caused by EC. Apply this ointment before you go to sleep.

2. Sunkroma Lip Balm

Sunkroma Lip Balm Lotion is used for Skin whitening, Skin-soothing, Skin depigmenting, Canine atopic dermatitis, Skin protection against UV rays, Canine atopic dermatitis, Aging, and erythema, Chapped or cracked skin, Acne, and other conditions.

It keeps your lips moisturized, and prevents chapped, dry lips caused by exfoliative cheilitis. This lip balm is really helpful in the treatment of Exfoliative Cheilitis. Try it for once and you will have better results. 

You can put this lip balm in your pocket and apply it on your lips 2 to 3 times a day.

3. Vaseline 

Vaseline is an alternative for a lip balm which is easily available nearly in every household. Also, vaseline is known for its good moisturizing power and is used widely all over the world. Instead of lip balm, you can apply vaseline too. But lip balms give better results than vaseline. So in my suggestion, you should use sunkroma lip balm, but yes you can use vaseline too.

So that's all for this post. Try these medications and cure, and look if you feel any change in your condition. Lastly, I will say, if you are having EC you should consult a doctor immediately, they have better experience to deal with these diseases more than our own remedies.
