Remedies for lip-licker's dermatitis

I have a lip-licker's dermatitis. It really hurts, and I can't open my mouth wide. Do you have any ideas regarding its remedies? Thank you so much for the help!

Lip-licker’s dermatitis is caused by licking chapped lips. Stop licking your lips at the first place. Licking chapped lips doesn’t help; on the other hand it makes the lips drier by scraping off the oil surrounding the lips causing a red ring around your lips.
- Stop lip biting and sucking too.
- Keep yourself well hydrated by drinking enough water.
- Use a lip balm, especially while going out in sun.
- Use air humidifier in winters to moisten air at home.
Consult a dermatologist as chapped lips can often get infected.
