General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hi,
From history it seems that she might be having Angular stomatitis giving this problem.
Due to not getting enough rest on the part due to talking, chewing and passing saliva, healing is always delayed or not allowing healing of the local wound.
Give her one course of antibiotic medicine for 3-5 days.
Give her vitamin B.complex, folic acid for some time.
Apply antibiotic cream or Gention violet.
Ok and take care.
