Hi
I really need some help, I have a skin allergy which comes out every couple of months (dunno what am allergic to though). Anyways the skin under my eyes and my eyelids are covered in a rash and under my eye is all swollen and fat. This time it has also affected my neck which has come out in a ugly itchy rash which is really sore. Anyone ever been in the same situation or any ideas on how i can get rid of it or reduce it?
I went to the docs today but all she gave me was this cream and some allergy relief tablets which dont really work on me. Its really bringing me down and makes me want to cry.

get a skin prick test done for allergies.

i used to have really bad hayfever/animal allergies when i was a teenrager and i went through a course of injections to fix me up. i only get slight hayfever/allergies now (maybe once a year) but before it was about every second week.

I agree with had a dad, although those tests are nasty things it'll at least get to the cause rather than just solving the immediate
as for the immediate, cold/wet compresses or something?

well my eyes have finally gone down now but my neck is so painful and is covered with a nasty sore rash thing This sucks!!! Its horrible going to work and everyone staring at my neck, makes me feel really paranoid

have you made the doctors appointment yet though?
You really need to get an allergy test done.

When i went to the doctors she told me i had to narrow it down to what i thought was giving me the allergy and only then she could test me for it.

go back and if you don't have a clue tell her that
My aunt just got tested for shitloads...all of her back was covered in nasty injections but she found out what she was allergic to....something in the colour yellow apparently, go figure.
