Specializes in Urgent Care

Perioral dermatitis: See a dermatologist for a full history and physical, make sure it is eczema you are dealing with. Avoid potent topical steroids on the face, best to use 1% hydrocortisone or topical tacrolimus on the face for steroid responsive dermatoses. Avoid triggers and see dermatologist for more information please and good luck!
