Suggest Treatment For Back Pain And Rashes Around The Eyes

I have been taking acetaminophen for back pain (along with chiropractic adjustments). I have developed a rash around my eyes (eyelids and under the eyes) that seems to be spreading further on my face. Could this be from the medication? Marilyn, YYYY@YYYY

Hello,

Acetaminophen does not typically cause any rashes, so I would not suspect that as the cause of your rash.

It would be difficult to diagnose your rash without seeing it, but one possibility would be seborrheic dermatitis, which can cause a rash on the face.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Aaron Branch, General & Family Physician
