red rash on my face around my nose and chin
I have had a itchy rash under/in my nose its really sore with bumps and white tiny spots. Its been getting worse over the last 2 years and never clears up. Its now spreading to my chin. Iv been to the doctors plenty of times and they've given me so many different creams/gels the only ones that help is steroid base creams which I cant keep using on my face as iv been told there will be long term issues... noticed it started soon after my son turned one. I have dermatitis on my hands which iv had since I was 7 years old on and off.. can someone please help, iv had enough of it now
It could be demodicosis or staphylococcal folliculitis or both. I would recommend skinoren (the active ingredient is azelaic acid). I have used it in the past with satisfying results.
