Try over the counter Benedryl, and some anti-fungal cream like lotrimin. If it doesn`t get any better, you may need to see a dermatologist for something stronger. Good Luck!!!!!

Best Antihistamine Cream

Have you tried a topical antihistamine ( apply to the skin)?? Benadryl is an antihistamine that is available in spray form and in a cream form. Maybe you should wear a face mask when you are working around chemicals where you work, especially when mixing chemicals for hair color ( dye). Place a small fan near your work station, keep it on low and in the direction away from you so that you'll get some ventilation from the chemicals. I hope that this helped some and Good Luck.

I think you need to get an allergy test. The test that would examine your blood and the results would tell on which things and food you are allergic. I don't think taking too much anti-histamines would help you get rid of those allergies. Sometimes, taking too much medicine might cause negative effects on your health. I suggest you to take that test, just to be sure, if those things really come from allergies and for you to know the main cause of the skin reaction or better visit some other physicians of different fields.. :) I hope this can help. God bless!

Eczema patients can avoid scratchy fibers for softer ones like bamboo, cotton, or silk, which are gentler on the skin. Opting to buy organic fibers can also be a wise, healthy, and eco-friendly alternative. Learn here https://tr.im/oGyzR
