Perioral Dermatitis

2021-05-14 18:22:01
Can we use Emolene for the dryness around my mouth. I have been using cetaphil for two months, it worked fine. Now even after using it, the dryness around my lips and cheeks has appeared again. What more should I do apart from taking medication to reduce this dryness. Can I use Emolene?
