Thanks very much for your porfessional input on things,
well i've had other symptoms besides the ones above, sweating easily, feeling feverish, random feeling of fatigue, mild diarrhea and nervousness.
I'm getting blood tests done (awaiting for results) to see if it's thyroid related or celiac.
The bloods tests will also show if my kidneys,liver and intestines are functioning ok
if nothing comes back, i'm stumped, because i feel that the creams prescribed aren't the necessary treatment as i feel the problem is inside my body and it's just showing up on the face
Hello,
From the symptoms I would like to rule out the possibility of rosacea. The exact cause of rosacea is not known. The basic process seems to involve dilation of the small blood vessels of the face. It can be due to genetic causes, hormonal problems, the bacteria Helicobacter pylori (that is associated with stomach ulcers), gastrointestinal disease, and medications that cause blood vessels to widen.
Treatment options vary from antibiotic creams, antihistaminics, sun screens to laser treatment. A dermatologist’s evaluation will be the best.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
hmmm strange. my eczema behind the ears doesn't require any creams other than a typical moisturizer as it's not severe enough.
What dazzles me to this day is that 18months ago i just woke up and had this skin condition and can't seem to get rid of it to save my life.
I can't believe how similar our cases are. My dermo. also perscribed both of those medications but I have not tried them yet. My face flared up after using Neutrogena Acne Face Wash. It had some kind of acne fighting cleanser that really irratated my sensitive skin. I also feel my skin flares up after a stressful/anxiety filled week. I also have the eczema behind my ears and use Triamcinolone Acetonide Ointment (used only for the trunk of the body) but when I use it behind my ears it slowly makes a great recovery with all the pigment.
