I have dark spots around my mouth and they appeared out of no where. I have tried hydrocortisone cream and I can't seem to fix this problem. I just want to cover my mouth all the time. Help?

There many factors that can cause pigmentation around the mouth, such as genetic predisposition, hormonal factors, pregnancy, and exposure to ultraviolet light. Please consult with your dermatologist, he/she will help determine the cause of the pigmentation and prescribe a treatment that's right for you.

I have the same problem too and it doen't help how I feel because I try so hard to cover it up with makeup before going out.I will keep checking for updates on any advices or suggestions and hope something turns up

Do you lick your lips a lot ? This could cause the same problem. If so you may be thirsty or dehydrated.

It could be HPV... I think. I have the same problem, and it started after I dated someone with HPV.

I have been using glutathione soap and the dark spots around my mouth are gone.it really worked for me.you can try it too.as for it being hpv,I don't know about that because I don't have hpv and yet got those dark spots.

I have the same problem.. I went to the doctor and they gave me this HUGE scientic name for it, but its basically a bacteria around your lips or mouth... go to the doctor and they will most likely give you METRONIDAZOLE tropical cream 0.75&... it is amazingggggg!.
