Hi...Neetusingh..,
Thanks for choosing HCM..,
Perioral dermatitis....t is commonly caused by the use of fluorinated topical glucocorticoid steroids to this area, although it can have many other causes, including fluoride toothpastes or simply continual irritation. It is exacerbated by cosmetics, soaps, facial washes and steroid creams so use of these things on the affected area is not advisable..,
Good treatment is available...
Now U are following treatment is correct..,
But some instructions to take..,
1) Topical treatment includes antibiotics such as
metronidazole and
erythromycin...
The use of potent topical steroids is strictly contraindicated. However, in some cases, the initial use of a low-potency corticosteroid (eg,
hydrocortisone cream) may be appropriate....,
The use of cosmetics, cleansers, and moisturizers should be avoided during treatment...,
2) Cap Nudoxy is nothing but Doxycycline , drug of choice for Perioral dermatitis..,
alternatively Isotretinoin, erythromycin, Minocycline also useful..,
3) provoking factors can be determined, they should be avoided....,
So consult good
