Why Child Is Having Itchiness Around The Eyes, Forehead And Behind Ears?

My 3 and a half year old has itchiness around her eyes , top of forehead, behind her ears and neck and a little on her chest. I am assuming she is allergic to something but not sure what it could be ? She scratches her eyes terribly sometimes which is causing puffiness and redness with the rashes. I hate seeing her so tortured by this. It has gotten progressively worse over the last 2 weeks.

Pediatrician,  's  Response
Thanks for the query.
It can be some type of allergy.

Better diagnosis can be made by watching photo.

Is there any rash over the face or brhind ears.

Try giving some antiallergic like cetrizine, after consulting with the doctor.

Also try to find out allergen and avoid it.

Hope i helped you.
