What Causes Itching On The Face, Scalp And Around The Lips?
Hi, My symptoms started with itching on the face ( beard ) , scalp and around the lips. Lips have since developed dark spots and are painful. I have been applying alclometasone topical cream, but have not seem much relief. Lips are getting worse and itching on the beard and scalp has not stopped either. Its been like this for 3 months now. I have tried changing my soap and toothpaste as well. Pl advise
