Hello! I work as a doctor for 21 years. My name is George O. Sapego. This article will tell something useful for perioral dermatitis.
Perioral dermatitis manifests shallow skin rash and redness around the mouth, nose and eyes.
Similarly, it is unclear how such dermatitis formed. Part of the reason there are hormonal ointments.
More common in women aged 16 - 45 years. Much rarer - men, children and the elderly.
Something's going on with the skin like eczema, causing cracks appear, and the dirt and germs gets to them.
People immediately draw attention to the worsening of hormonal ointments.
This is doubly a shame, because many are accustomed to any redness on the face smear hormones. And then of hormones and then only all the creeps.
This triple shame because most of dermatitis is from the most powerful and rough fluorinated glucocorticoids, which by a strange coincidence, is also the cheapest.
It turns out that most people buy a cheap cream and sit down on it as drug addicts. Ointment instantly removes redness, but make the skin more sensitive. It is a vicious circle.
If people try to abandon hormonal ointment, the dermatitis is exacerbated even more than before.
So still not decided whether perioral dermatitis himself appears, and then grows "on hormones ", or was originally some harmless ordinary pimple, who, without hesitation, smeared hormones. In fact it is not so important, because it ends all reliance on hormonal ointments.
Perioral dermatitis is from any of glucocorticoids. Even inhaled medications for asthma can trigger inflammation on his face.
Hormones attenuate the skin and disrupt its barrier function.
There are other contributing factors:
- use of fluoride toothpaste;
- different cosmetic products;
- candida;
- Hormonal fluctuations in women;
- birth control pills.
Rashes and redness are not only around the mouth, but also around the nose and eyes.
Sometimes the dermatitis is not worried, sometimes reddened areas of the skin may be a burning sensation.
Perioral dermatitis is considered a benign disease that goes by itself. It happens that the eruption is still a few years.
If you show a rash or redness of a dermatologist, he will understand immediately. Do not try to put yourself diagnoses and even more so to be treated. There, everything is so long held that it is better not to risk it. So contact your doctor.
What could be the tips:
- Perioral dermatitis appears around the mouth, but sparing the skin next to the red border of the lips, that is, it does not creeps on the lips.
- This dermatitis occurs in people who have already been treated for eczema or atopic dermatitis.
- It is characterized by a burning sensation and tingling. It is a burning sensation, and not itching.
- Immediately we can remember that using hormonal ointment or inhaler.
- Many people immediately talk about the aggravation of dermatitis after discontinuation of hormones.
- On the pimple will not comedones (blackheads). This is not like acne. No scars do not happen by perioral dermatitis.
- Yellow crusts should not be. Yellow cake - it is a sign of infection.
Do not smear indiscriminately even cheaper ointments and do not let the skin become inflamed from toothpastes and care products.
If refused creams or cosmetics, and you become better, then return your makeup and care products is very slow. Add them one per week.
