Hi Dear ,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern . As per your query you have bad eczema . There can be may reasons for eczema like cosmetics products , pets , pollens , certain viruses and bacteria , weather , food like nuts and sea food .
In your case the probable reasons is seasonal allergy . I would suggest you to keep yourself away from open environment , use air condition , continue taking anti histamine like bendryl , apply cold compresses to affected area and apply moisturizer .
It is also very important to keep yourself hydrated and protect your sking from direct sunlight .
If condition doesn't get improve or get worse then consult allergy specialist for proper examination . Doctor will take history and try to find out the trigger factor . Doctor may order allergy test . Doctor may give adrenaline short or may hospitalize .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
