Salt and vinegar crisps hurt my lips

Is that normal or could it be a sign of a health problem?
My brother said I have a problem if some crisps hurt my lips. Its basically after a packet my lips have kind of a sting a bit so I just try to avoid that flavour.

Your brothers winding you up. Salt and vinegar? Vinegars acidic and if you have chapped or dry lips it can irritate them. Doesnt mean theres a health problem, just need a bit of lip balm for the winter months.
They also make my lips, mouth and throat very sore, the pain can last for days, even salted crisps.
