While this kind of skin problem has minimal morbidity, it still helps to take steps to counter the effects of this skin condition. If you notice discoloration and chapping on your lips, it would help a lot to seek help from your doctor right away. Your doctor might give you medications and you will need to use lip balms and sunscreens to help prevent further degeneration of the affected areas.
If you notice ulcers or crusts developing on the affected areas, you might want to tell your doctor about it so that the necessary tests can be made on you.
