I am suffering from perioral dermatitis using medicated creams but it is of no usenis there any permanent cure for this.

Question

Dear Lybrate user, please explain the problem with more details. How long is this problem going on? What are the current symptoms? Have you taken any treatment earlier and if yes give us the details so that we have a fair idea of your problem. Dermatitis is usually caused by some allergy or rather contact allergy. It could be anything such as bath soap, detergent, using fancy makeup or beauty products which don't suit your skin, chemicals, imitation jewellery, allergy to sun rays etc. Etc. So knowing the reason of allergy is important. Also once you know what causes the allergy, you should avoid using the same or avoid contact with the same. Allopathy medicines for dermatitis generally contain steroids which have side effects if used for long time. Hence taking a safe and effective herbal ayurvedic medication, detoxification and some dietary changes should solve your problem without any side effects. You can use the facility of telephonic / text / video consultation if you want to contact us. Hope this will help you!
