Brief Answer:
Desonide lotion
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
It is an allergy, hence it will not spread to others. Eyelid involvement is also a part of this. There are chances of recurrence. The best way to manage is to apply Desonide lotion immediately as soon as it reappears. This will control the allergy in its initial stages.
