What To Do For Poison Oak On Face, Lips, Bottom Of Eyes, Legs, Arms And Stomach?
I have poision oak all over my face, my lip and by the bottom of my eye. I also have it all over my legs and arms I have some on my stomach. My head hurts really bad and I'm having chest pains. Do you think I should go to the doctor? My mom says I have to wait until it gets worse.
I can understand your concern for poison oak all over my face, lip and by the bottom of eye. It requires a close physical examination to diagnose the exact entity and severity of the problem.
In my view correlating with the facts you have provided it appears to be allergic dermatitis of the area.
I suggest you to meet a dermatologist to for proper therapy. In between you should avoid contact of dust to the area properly. If I were your dermatologist then presumptively would have preferred to apply fluticasone cream. You can take an antihistamine such as loratadine for twice a day if itching is present.
Do not try to pinch, pop or squeeze the area as it may cause secondary infection of the area.
All the best
