 | Contact Dermatitis on my eyelid! Please HELP!? |
|
|
Question: I've had contact dermatitis on my eyelid for a few months now. I didn't know what it was at first, and was out of state so it took me awhile to see my dermatologist. I went about 3 weeks ago and I've been on ongoing treatments of Prednisone (5mg) tablets as well as Locoid cream (0.1%). It went away the first week, but then came back. Now on my second week of steroids, it is still spreading and has moved under my eyelid. It itches like crazy and I've lost almost all my eyelashes on my left eye. I hardly ever wear makeup, so I'm not sure what has caused it. I'm worried because it is still spreading while I am on my treatment. Does ANYONE have any suggestions? Have any of you ever had something like this? It's a terrible confidence lower. :-( Additional DetailsI haven't been using any new products at all. I've even been afraid to wash my face or moisturize. I've used Cetaphil for sensitive skin for years. I have not been wearing makeup at all and when I do rub my eyes, I use a tissue. It doesn't look as bad as it did when I first whent to the doctor (my eyelid was practically purple and swollen shut). It is still spreading though.
Answer: Try using all pure and natural products for your face.[I suggest Arbonne] also you could also place a little vitamin e on the area before you head to bed.It could just be a skin allergy make sure you strip your bedding/pillows and wash them in something "natural"..same with your clothes and don't touch your eye if you can help it.
