Alright.. I'm a little weirded out this morning.. well since yesterday morning actually..
My nose, eyes, and forehead are red and swelled up.. and it itches a little bit, but it is also very dry and crisp.. I have never had this happen to me before and it is weird!
You guys have any ideas where it could be from? I'm thinking the weather.. I have a lot of allergies.. and anyhow, any way to get rid of it?
Thanks :wtf:
take some dramamine or the allergy stuff. that is prob allergies. maybe u rubbed ur face on something u allergic too like some kinda clothes. definately not cannabis though.
Yeah I know it's not weed heheh, but I did take some allergy pills just now..
hopefully it will help, thanks !
So I put diphenhydramine cream on it.. some moisturizing cream as well becuase it looks so dry... and it's still bad..
Anyone would have any further ideas??! Please guys.. I don't have med insurance 'til the 1st and my parents are gone for 2 weeks..
Sounds like a combination of dry, cold air and an allergic reaction, but it's impossible to hazard more than a guess on a Web forum. Did the Benadryl cream help? Oral Benadryl/diphenhydramine would probably help more than topical. I normally take two 25 mg caplets when an allergy is bothering me.
Sometimes it's hard to decide what caused the problem, but for me when I have that symptom, it's nearly always something in a shampoo or hair product. It can also be something like the wool or other type of yarn in a sweater (I'm allergic to angora) or a reaction to a new laundry detergent. You have to have had at least one previous exposure to an allergen to have a reaction to it, so it's something your body has run across at least once before. Try the Benadryl pills and see if they help. If you're determined to find out what caused the problem, start thinking back on your hair products, detergents, fragrances or clothing fibers. Then eliminate possible culprits one at a time until you've found your way to allergy relief or a repeat reaction, which would give you your answer. Good luck!
Hey thanks birdgirl.. I appreciate the feedback. It was really bad earlier.. I was freaking out!
Anyhow, got some benadryl cream on it again and after a hike it's doing much better
I just hope it doesn't come back like it did this morning
If it does come back in the morning it could be something found on or in your bed. Sounds weird but maybe a fungus or something. This being the case a simple washing of sheet and pillow cases should suffice. Hope everything turns out alright!
SOunds bad! I had a friend that got that very same thing and he was dead in less than 2 days..Hopefully that benadryl works for you.
