 Posted: 10/09/07 - 14:55 Post subject: Help - face rash |
  |
|
| I have a rash like outbreak that when active, appears to be almost like small pimples with a blotchy red background that covers only around my mouth, almost gottee like. When it is inactive, I just have red blotchiness. I have had it on and off now for about two months. I was prescribed a topical antibiotic that takes the condition from active to inactive but the blotchiness is always there. I'm thinking it's a food allergy (narrowed down to nuts, chocolate or sugar) but that is strictly based on my observations - any idea of what else it could be????? |

| I think I have the same thing. Did you ever figure out what it is or what causes it? I'm about to pick up a prescription for Dermagel. I'll try anything. I was wondering if it was a food allergy, too...It's really awful. I tried a new soap and now it's bright red and stings and I look like that guy from Dune...Any advice? |

i have the exact same thing, i've tried cold sore treatment, boroleum ointment [which provides about the same relief as carmex], and even hydrocortizone. nothing has helped it. i've had it for about a week. i think it may be an allergy, but i cant think of anything that i have eaten or used in the past 2 weeks thats new. i have NO idea what it is or what to use to cure it -- i've tried everything! any ideas, anyone? |
