Dermatitis???

I have mild acne and last night, I tried a new moisturiser (actually, I used it before last year with no problems but I think they changed the formula). Well, this morning, I work up with a painful and itchy rash all over my mouth area and cheeks! It looks repulsive, and it hurts so bad! I'm in tears right now. I looked all over the web and decided what I have is Irritant Contact Dermatitis. I was diagnosed with this some years before also, but it was never this bad.
Does anyone have any advice!?

Thanks for reading.

Re: Dermatitis???

I know just how you feel. I have episodes with dermatitis myself. Not many people understand the irratation of dermatitis. I have a very simple way of easing my irratation. First, refraim from use of harsh soaps, lotions and shampoos. Next, moisturize the area with a scent and dye free moisturizer, like aveeno, petro. jelly or even vegatable oil (this was a reccomendation from my physican.) Afterwards wrap the area(s) in a wet bandage. repeat this as much as possible. Bare in mind I am not a physican and I am not qualified to diagnose you with dematitis. However, I do notice striking simularites and feel it meets the major crietion of dermatitis as published by the NATIONAL ECZEMA ORGANIZATION. I would suggest trying this, if you feel comfortable its dematitis. Good Luck!
