Perioral Dermatitis
What is
Perioral Dermatitis?
Perioral Dermatitis is a common inflammatory skin condition that primarily affects the area around the mouth, though it can also extend to the nose and eyes. It appears as a red, bumpy rash that may resemble acne or rosacea but requires different treatment approaches. This condition can cause discomfort and frustration due to its persistent nature and tendency to flare up periodically.
Symptoms of
Perioral Dermatitis
Recognizing the signs of Perioral Dermatitis early can help in seeking appropriate Perioral Dermatitis treatment before the condition worsens. Common Perioral Dermatitis symptoms include:
- Redness and inflammation around the mouth
- Dryness and flaking of the affected skin
- Small, red papules or pustules
- Burning or itching sensation
- Mild scaling or peeling
Types of
Perioral Dermatitis
Understanding the different Perioral Dermatitis types helps in identifying the most suitable treatment plan. There are several types of Perioral Dermatitis, which may vary in severity and appearance:
- Classic Perioral Dermatitis
Characterized by red papules and pustules around the mouth with a clear zone around the lips.
- Granulomatous Perioral Dermatitis
Presents with yellowish or brown papules, typically seen in darker skin tones.
- Steroid-Induced Perioral Dermatitis
Triggered by prolonged use of topical corticosteroids, which can worsen symptoms when discontinued abruptly.
