Go and see your doctor and have some blood tests. It sounds a bit like Angular stomatitis, which is a type of chelitits in the corners of the lips. This is sometimes caused by an iron deficency anemia, so it is worth getting that checked.
You can get you a tube of 'abreva' from the pharmacy at Walmart. Warning: it is a very little tube that costs $13-14 dollars. Good news: it works and is great for cold sores and it goes a long way.
I had this problem a few weeks ago! My doctor prescribed some ointment called ';fatty ointment'; kinda like a thicker vaseline and i took vitamin b tablets which worked wonders :)
Quit using tartar-control toothpaste.
