Feeling dehydrated, watering eye, rashes and swelling on face. Any ideas?
Answered by
becoming blistery , skin that is feeling very hot and getting painful. She is feeling very dehydrated.
Any ideas please.
Thanks for writing to us.
This skin rash could be due to viral infection or it could be due to some allergic reaction.
I would like to know
1) since how long is she having this rash
2) does it involve one side of face without crossing midline
3) any blisters inside oral cavity
4) use of any new cosmetic or medicine etc at the area of involvement
Answering these questions and uploading an image of the concerned area would help me out in confirming the possibilities.
Hoping to hear from you soon. Take care.
No blisters in mouth.
Swelling began slowly on Sunday morning and gradually got worse until Tuesday
morning when her eyes were swelling rapidly.
Rash is raised blisters and is all over face and on her neck.
No new medicine or cosmetics have been used recently.
Hope this helps.
She might be having contact dermatitis or angioedema
As she is having swelling of eyes, rash, swelling over her face and blisters( fluid filled lesions), she needs immediate medical intervention. Kindly consult a doctor nearby as she might require a course of oral steroids.
In the meanwhile start her on oral antihistaminics like cetirizine or Benadryl
Hope that answers your query. Take care.
Wish your daughter a speedy recovery.

MD My husband had a double hernia repaired almost two weeks ago and now he's breaking out in a rash that's very itchy. Benadryl seems to help, but doesn't completely eliminate the problem.

MD i have routine blood work done yearly and last month my GFR came back 59, HCT 31, nml w/ cr 1.0. i have markers for sjogrens, not clinical diagnosis, chol 203, hdl 54, ldl 110 triglycerides 88 and BP is 110/70 s ballpark average, microprotein 44 in urine from 4 last sept. i have no other healthproblems. repeat GFR 58, HCT 37 bun/cr same, chol level same but CO2 20, and microprotein is down to 8 in urine (cut protein down to minimum..i was big protein eater). i am worried about GFR. only thing i can think of that could have caused this is taking ibuprofen/benadryl during a 3 week period when i broke my rib prior to having labs drawn..and i took the ibuprofen regularly. i drink lots of water always. also since feb, i have increased exercise phenomenally. is it possible to turn this GFR around? and how quick does kidney failure take? am i on a downward spiral? i have next appt w/ Primary doc in 1 month, am repeating labs til then. what can i do that i am not doing to retard/repair circumstances? is it permanent damage?..
