Perioral dermatitis is one of those conditions that’s often mistaken for another skin issue. Many people think it’s acne, but it’s actually a form of inflammatory rash that typically appears around the mouth, nose, or eyes.
Common triggers? Topical steroid creams, inhaled steroid sprays, fluorinated toothpaste, hormonal changes, and even chewing gum.
The good news: with the right treatment plan, and by identifying your triggers, it’s very manageable. If you’re dealing with persistent redness or bumps around your mouth, see your dermatologist to get a proper diagnosis and start the right treatment.
