I’m not malnourished right now. My BMI is 17.

I have the SAME problem, except it's one corner of my mouth and it's had trouble healing for the last.... two years.
I've noticed that a really good, nonscented lip balm helps, as does staying hydrated. It absolutely can be related to vitamin deficiencies which, if you have an ED, you probably have one or two even if they're not major/you're not very malnourished.
There's also something called angular cheilitis which causes the corner(s) of your mouth to become cracked, but that isn't it necessarily.
But again, staying hydrated and moisturizing (the cracks especially) is what's helped me at least lessen how bad mine is.

Yeah definitely don’t dry fast. You need a lot of water, moisturiser, lip balm, etc. Never leave your lips dry at least till it heals.
I’m trying to drink all kinds of water and keep lip balm in my pocket so I always have it! Can’t wait until it heals. I really hope it’s not years for me...

Nah I get this issue all the time when I forget to stay hydrated and such, it’ll go away you just gotta keep up with it. It might mean you have generally dry skin btw, so that could be useful info for general skincare

Yeah, I have dry skin. Really dry. I guess this makes sense then.

Thank you! I read that too and have been trying salt and baking soda rinse on separate days. Better to face the possibility than ignore it, right?? Fungal mouth infection. 🤢
