What Causes A Red Spot On The Face?

Posted on Fri, 14 Oct 2016

Question: I have a skin problem on my face. I have never had any kind of skin disorder. It started with a small red,
Kind of dry, scaly patch between my eyebrows. That patch has gotten larger and two more small patches on either side of my nose have appeared. The worst now is all around my mouth. My lips are completely dry and scaly and now my lips
are puffy. It is terribly uncomfortable and I am concerned that this can spread to my eyes.
