Question 3

what could be the cause of redness in corner of mouth?

Accepted Answer

Irritation: You may have a few different things.  It could be an area that doesn't dry out much (licking) and may or may not have a fungal infection, possible viral lesion such as a form of herpes labalis, it could be from trauma of a split lip that just hasn't healed.

Visual phenomena: I would want to know more information about your symptoms but even so, you should have a full eye exam by an ophthalmologist (M.D.) soon.

Question 5

i think i might have chronic herps. can the redness of chronic  herps look worse as time goes by  while i have it?

Accepted Answer

No: Herpes characteristically manifests by recurrent painful ulcers.  In between outbreaks the areas generally heal completely and don't leave any marks.  You may be describing other things if the lesions are always there.

Question 6

is there any possible way to reduce redness on cheeks ? like after a warm shower it stays red for a long time and my skin is uneven, or is it acnescar

Accepted Answer

Rosacea: Although rosacea can vary substantially from one individual to another, flushing and persistent redness are by far the most common initial signs of the disorder. Treatment includes topical prescription medications like metrogel, or finacea, or bionect. Oral medication like Oracea is also very helpful.

Question 7

should i be concerned about redness in the corner of eyes?

Accepted Answer

See eye physician: This could be any number of things.  Eczema causes redness of lids.  Angular blepharitis can cause redness of outside corners of eyes.  Also allergies, blepharitis may cause more diffuse redness of lid margins.

Question 8

flesh colored soft bumps appear on full lower inner arm comes/goes several times a day not everyday but often.  no redness/itchwhat could it be

Accepted Answer

Non itchy bumps: Since the bumps are non itchy, not red, come and go daily, these seem to represent  some type of a reaction to an allergen in your environment. Examine the area for bugs, mites etc. Long term exposure to such allergens can cause chronic problems like asthma etc.

Question 9

what to do if i put my contact lenses on for the first time now when will the redness go away?

Accepted Answer

Soon: Redness should resolve within minutes of putting in the lens. If it persists longer than that, there may be issues with the fit of the lens or solutions. In that case you should discontinue lens wear and see your eye doctor.

Question 10

i am on accutane and have been on it for 6 months now (2 months left) and randomly today i am experience redness that i havent experience in a while. i use la roche posay products which has been fine, and dont work or spent much time outside?

Accepted Answer

: You might want to consider tapering your dose, esp if your are controlled { which should be the case by 6 mos }. see your dermatologist for their opinion.  You haven't stated exactly where the redness is and its severity. More common than the redness is the dryness that may occur, esp on the lips
