Perioral Dermatitis – Signs, Causes, Diagnosis, and Management
Perioral dermatitis is a type of dermatitis characterized by a red inflammatory rash around the mouth. The redness and scaling can last for several weeks, months, or even years. In some cases, it may spread to the nose and eyes. When that happens, the condition is called periorificial dermatitis. Perioral dermatitis is often mistaken to be acne.
