Hi I wasn't sure of which topic to post this in but it is a HELP topic so I thought I'd go with this one
Anyone on here have/ever heard of Perioral Dermatitis? If you know what it is you will know that it SUCKS. I have had it on and off pretty bad for over 4 years with it never really going away, just the tiniest things make it flare up and there is no real 'cure' basically I'm pretty much stuck with it. What it is is a horrible burning itching red scaly rash that occurrs around the mouth (perioral) and sometimes around the eyes (periocular) luckily its only around my mouth.
It looks soo gross and hurts and makes it hard to exercise because sweat makes it worse! I have also read of cases where people have had to see psychiatrists because of the mental effect the symptoms have on people self confidence, and I understand it is NOT NICE.
Anyway I have read up on it and pretty much know all the medical and natural remedies people have tried but I haven't tried myself so I was just wondering if any of you lovely MFP users have used or know of anything that could help me, do you have any success stories?? I know I can never be fully cured but I need something to make it better and ease my SUFFERING
Any suggestions welcome!
