Top 10 Home Remedies for Perioral Dermatitis

About Perioral dermatitis:

Perioral dermatitis, also known as periorificial dermatitis, is a type of inflammatory rash that appears on the facial skin around the mouth.

The exact cause of this form of dermatitis is not known. However, experts believe that it may appear after topical steroid creams are applied to the face to treat other conditions. Moreover, nasal sprays containing corticosteroids as well as heavy skin creams that contain petrolatum or a paraffin base may cause this problem.

Some other factors that may trigger this skin condition include bacterial or fungal infections, rosacea, constant drooling, use of fluoridated toothpaste, oral contraceptives, and sunscreen.

Perioral dermatitis is common in young women, but it can also affect men as well as small children. People who have a history of allergies or hormonal imbalances are at an increased risk of suffering from this condition.

The most common symptom is a rash of red bumps around the mouth and in the folds around the nose. The bumps may be scaly in appearance and may contain pus or fluids. They sometimes resemble acne. There may also be a burning sensation or itching, especially as the rash worsens.

Perioral dermatitis can last for months and treatment is usually lengthy. While treating it, the American Osteopathic College of Dermatology recommends stopping the use of topical steroid creams or nasal sprays containing steroids, if possible. Discontinuing use of facial creams is also helpful.

Also, many simple home remedies can help alleviate symptoms and keep the condition from getting worse.
