Chronic Lip/Cheek Biting

I am looking for some advice on which remedy to take when it comes to biting my lips and cheeks. I have been doing this for over a year. I am 20 and know that in my case this habit does not link anxiety or depression. Thank you in advance for you help :)

Anxiety and depression are not the only reason to your problem.It is a nerve related symptom but reasons can be different.Sometimes persistent bacterial infections attack central nervous system in the later stages of pathology.Improperly treated injuries can be also one the major causes.

Thank you for your reply Tahira.
I don't believe that my issue is cause of any infections. I simply do this due to habit; if I manage to stop the biting for a couple days, my lips and cheeks heal easily. I think that maybe this habit started as a reaction to stress at the time but i have not been able to stop it since it started.

This can be due to digestive tract infection which can not be trace out easily.Imbalance of digestive enzymes and secretions can lead towards multiple problems physical and mental.
