I've been on a high dose corticosteroid on my face now i have pimples and inflamation around my mouth could this be related and what am i to do ?

Likely related: The acne flare you are experiencing could very well be related to the steroids that you have been prescribed. Notification of your prescribing physician would be wise, and consultation with a dermatologist for an individualized skin care regimen would likely be helpful.
