I wonder if Valtrex would help? Could she have shingles or other herpes infection? I had shingels in the eye and nose and the Valtez got rid of it--but now I am back on a small dose just to keep it from returning. The lesions around the mouth made me think of it.
Wishing you two the best with hugs and prayers,
Janet
