hi - am hoping someone can help. I look hideous at the moment and having had clear skin all my life i am now covered in blotches round my mouth. It itches like mad and i am doing the recommended "put nothing on it" therapy, except for bathing it in diluted apple cider vinegar twice a day.

does anyone have any experience with this? did it go away? how long did it take?

am feeling very down about my appearance at the mo Xmas Sad

Hi there, I had this a fair few years ago and i recall the Dr prescribing some steroid cream to apply to the area (sam around the mouth) it worked and I have never had it since. My sis also had episodes of getting it around her nose, she sticks to E45.
