Perioral dermatitis caused hard water?
There's something that looks like perioral dermatitis around my mouth and chin. The only thing new in my life is moving to a new place. The new place has extremely hard water. I'm wondering if that's the cause. I recently started using lotion and its making it more flaky and scaly. I've used prescription steroid cream. Didn't help..

You should not use steorid cream as it is one of the causes for perioral dermatitis. Please call me or send photos using online consult option for proper examination diagnosis and treatment advice.
