Face Feels Dried Up. Is It An Environmental Allergy? Can I Stop It?
Hi doctor I am looking for a dermatologist . I have a skin problem on face. It appears like dried up near the mouth region. On consulting a dermatologist he said it is environmental allergy and asked me to use Winflute and activera ointment. only while applying the skin becomes normal.If I stop, the problem pops up. Problem is this medicine is not available in the place I live. Is there a permanent solution for this?

Hi,
Thanks for writing in.
Rash you are describing can be perioral dermatitis rosacea,xerosis.
My advise to you would be to use venusia lotion.
Also oral drugs with multivitamin minerals may be needed.
Also you can use moisturizing soap like E DEW soap.
I encourage you to visit your dermatologist or general practioner for proper diagnosis and treatment.
Hope this helps.
