Peritoneal excoriation, often resulting from skin irritation or infection, requires careful management. First, keep the affected area clean and dry, using mild soap and water. Applying a barrier cream can help protect the skin from further irritation. If the excoriation is severe or shows signs of infection, such as increased redness or discharge, seek medical attention for potential treatment with topical or systemic medications.
