Suggest Remedies For Lip Fungus
I have what I call maby a lip fungus. It is like it is raw and in the corners of my mouth they crack and are white. I have been like this before and I have used listerine mouth wash and rubed it on with cotton swab. It burns when iuse it but it seem now that is not working. What do you recommend ?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
I really appreciate your concern if this is really fungal infection then applying Listerine lotion can flair up the lesion, so in my opinion it is best to apply gentian violet this would give nice result in such lesion if this fails to respond then clinical examination is must, hope this information helps you, take care and have a nice day.
