Allergic Face Reaction

When I go outside some times if the wind hits my face its begins to burn and itch always in the same area and then my face starts to whelp up. If a scratch it spreads. What cause this? Mostly in the fall and winter time. Could I be having an allergic reaction to something in the air?

Hi again,

I've given your problem a rethink. Perhaps you can make an appointment
with your family doctor to begin with. Where I live, your family doctor
gives you a referral to an allergist. The allergist can do an allergy test
on you to see what you're allergic to. Good luck with this. Eve

Most likely its a reaction to the different pollens in the air. The best way to find out if its an allergic reaction is to ask your doctor for allergy testing.

Hi there,
I just finished reading your comments. If you're not sure what is causing
this allergic reaction on your face, I would recommend making an appointment with a dermatologist as this is a skin issue and dermatologists
are skin specialists. Good luck. Eve
