What Does Itching And Dryness On Forehead Post Healing Of An Injury Suggest?
Hello! I am a victim of an unknown assailant; consequentially suffered injury to my forehead’ although the wound has heeled; what I have since is itching and dryness of the forehead-the ground was contaminated with used motor oil. Could this be an allergen?
I don't think it was an allergen but more of a skin reaction to the injury and it healing. Just stay well hydrated and apply a good quality moisturising cream to the region. I do not think anything else should be required.
Best wishes.
