A member asked:

Red patches around my mouth?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need more info: Red patches around the mouth may be due viral infection like herpes, vitamin deficiency, fungal skin infection etc. Try taking an over the counter multivitamin and if the lesion does not go away in a couple of weeks, see your doctor.
