Hi, this is not so acne related but it did start off as acne.

I used to have acne around the mottom of each side of my mouth, thats gone away thanks to the accutane I've been taking for about 3 months now. As it went away, I think I may have touched it and it left little slits on each side of my mouth. The one on the right side of my mouth has healed before but today it reopened and the one on the left side of my mouth cracks open whenever I open my mouth wide, like to take a bite of a haraburger for example. Sometimes it bleeRAB. I've had this before and usually it goes away but I'm tired of waiting so long! I've tried many products but none are doing to well, other than creating a crust thats just going to crack open easily. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thanks, I'd really appreciate it.
 
This is just one of the side effects I had when using roaccutane. I had it on both sides of my mouth, and even when I tried to talk, it would just tear open and bleed. I tried a few of lipbams/moisturisers, but they didn't help at all, from cheap stuff, to more expensive stuff.

How long have you got left on the accutane? I had to grin and bare it out, I had it around the whole last month of my roaccutane perscription. The problem is obviously, you have to open your mouth to talk, and for me, it didn't help anything. It didnt heal with anything I used on it.

Hope you find something that can clear this problem up, but if like me, you may have to just bare it out.
 
I have 3 months to go on accutane, I take 60 mg a day every day. Right now I'm trying some pure petroleum jelly on my mouth and it sure eases the pain alot, but it still rips open when I open my mouth.
