Be my doctor

I have a tiny cut on the corner of my lip. I will most certainly not bleed out from it but, it is driving me bat shit crazy!! Every time I yawn or talk it splits back open. Can I glue it with that skin glue or can I not put that by my mouth?

[Muddled]

Google your skin glue or go to the store and look at the warnings. You are likely to split that when you yawn too, though.

I would just keep vaseline or aquaphor on it. If you keep it well moisturized, it's less likely to split.

Or, you know, you could keep your mouth shut for a while.

Don't talk.





I'm only being slightly sarcastic. I really think that's the only thing you can do.

[captainmel]

I can't not talk! I have opinions. They must be expressed.
I have been moisturizing like crazy. It will seal up overnight and then I am on my way to the coffee machine in the morning and then *yawn* and it pops open and gushes blood. OK, there is no blood. Whine.

Vaseline is a great idea.

Aquaphor. It will help!

I had this on Friday. Keep it lubed up and it should be better in a day or so.

I have the same thing. I'm eating lunch and I just split it open again. I hate those corner cuts. They are the worst.

I think I am going to have to go on a liquid diet. I have split it like, 4 times while I have been eating my mole chicken.

I to have a cut on the side of my mouth. I have been using blistex all day to make it feel better.

What is mole chicken?

[captainmel]

It is chicken with molé sauce. Molé (moh-lay not mole) is a spicy, slow roasted, pepper sauce. It is delicious. The chicken was stuffed with cheese and rice.
I realized it might look like a skin condition not a sauce. Oops. You can get it at a lot of Mexican restaurants it is usually served with a big platter of veggies and different meats.

Well, I was picturing:



but what you described sound so much better.

Gigglesnort. Those fingers kind of creep me out though. That's what I get for being lazy and typing on my phone.
