Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query.
The dryness over the lips and mouth can be secondary to the stone in the salivary gland. Nothing to be panic, consult a oral physician and get it evaluated. If there is a stone you need to get it removed. Mean while you can use artificial salivary substitutes like carboxy methyl cellulose.
I hope my answer will help you, take care.
