I have a sudden outbreak of spots on my chin that seem to be spreading rapidly-I have an under active thyroid but no other health issues.

without a photo hard to help but could be either Rosacea or something called "perioral dermatitis" which is actually another form of Rosacea anyway - check out my website for an update

Thank you for your reply-I have looked at some website pictures of perioral dermatitis and the rash is identical and in the same areas so i really appreciate your advice. I have not tried any 'over the counter' remedies so will go to my GP and seek medication from him before it spreads any further. thanks again.
