Okay, so 10 Weeks ago I got my lip pierced, they put surgical steel in and in about a week my face became red, itchy, hard and peeling, more towards the cheek region and eyebrow region. I went to the hospital because I was scared i had the shingles disease and they told me I had dermatitus, nothing regards the piercing, so they prescribed me some medication and it worked. About 8 weeks later, It came back again and the doctor prescribed me some antibiotics/steroids whatever. He also told me to apply acne cream and which i did, the outcome was horrible and became even worse. I went back and he told me to just have the medication and don't use any cream. So I did that and it wasn't working, I applied moisteriser everyday and there was no hard and peeling skin, only red, stinging, itchy skin that bled out some weird liquid i don't even want to know. A day before, I purchased a titanium stud to keep in my piercing. So i was wondering? How do overcome this? Can anyone diagnose me?
