Hello, I have been having this weird problem of redness around my nose and mouth.. last night there was no sign of redness and only mild itching, but as soon as I woke up today, I saw the skin around my nose is inflammed. I believe its Perioral Dermatitis but then again I cant make any diagnoses on my own. I have had this problem before and last time I had clear discharge from the inflammed skin and it resulted in a scar after couple days. I applied corticosteroids and took diphenhydramine and it got rid of the problem in a week. However, if its perioral dermatitis than I read its not good to apply hydrocortisone. so can any body please help me?? Thanks!
