Can using steroid cream on scalp, on nose and eyebrow cause perioral dermatitis?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Using topical steroid can trigger perioral dermatitis, especially to the area close to the perioral area such as the nose in your case. Nasal or inhaled corticosteroids are also implicated.
