Does anyone else’s POD just form a ring around their lips?

I have recently randomly flared up with what I can only assume is POD. It primarily manifests in a bright red ring around my lips that is super dry and sometimes flaky. It’s been going on for about 6 weeks. I have reduced my skincare to gentle basics. This hasn’t seemed to help much.

Today I tried De La Cruz sulfur cream for the first time, washing after 10 minutes. I generally only use hypoallergenic lip balm (Dr. Dan’s) or aquaphor on my lips. I am also going to switch my toothpaste, though I’ve used the same one for years and never had issues until now. Any advice? Does this seem like the right “diagnosis?” Does anyone else’s appear this way?
