What Causes Puffy Eyes, Dry Itchy Skin Along The Jaw And Nose?

Hello,I thought I was having an allergic reaction to some new facial wipes I had purchased. My symptoms include: very dry, itchy, red skin along my jawline, around my nose and under my eyes with swelling under the eyes. I immediately stopped using the wipes, but that has been about a week ago and symptoms have not gone away.Is this still related to that or something else completely?

Hi,


I admire your positive outlook and congratulate you for the attitude.



Now I guess you have puff eyes, itchy skin in face. There are lots of pathological causes responsible for this problem.



However, let me give my opinion here.



"As" per your clinical symptom is concerned my opinion is please stop all cosmetic products which you are using on skin. Do a blood DC and TWBC count and get a clinical examination done by your local doctor for any abnormal signs present. Check your TSH and FBS level and get your stool examined for worm infections. Do not take any other symptomatic drugs without your doctors advice. You can discuss with your treating doctor to add levocetrizine once a day for hives for 2 days.

For this you need expert's guidance by your family doctor



Hope this helps.
