It typically causes redness, soreness, cracking, crusting, and sometimes bleeding at the corners of the mouth. <br \/> The condition is most likely to develop in those with poorly fitting dentures; people whose diet is low in vitamin B12, folic acid, or iron; those with certain long-term bowel problems; and people who salivate excessively. <br \/> Angular cheilitis is treated with antifungal or antibiotic medication and, if necessary, the treatment of any associated condition, such as a dietary deficiency.
