Hi,
As per your query you have symptoms of eczema on forehead, eye and neck which seems due to contact dermatitis, seasonal allergy and nutritional deficiencies.
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to keep yourself away from open environment , use air condition , continue taking anti histamine like benadryl. You should apply cold compresses to affected area and apply moisturizer. If condition doesn't get improve or get worse then consult allergy specialist for proper examination. Doctor will take history and try to find out the trigger factor. The doctor may order an allergy test.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
