My poor husband came down with this rash on his face the other day and then it started spreading. He went to the doctor and got diagnosed with "contact dermatitis" which in simple terms means he had an allergic reaction to something he touched--probably a chemical or something in the sawdust at work. I am so happy he finally went to the doctor because he was so ITCHY and I felt horrible that I couldn't do anything to make him feel better.
I went to see "Jersey Boys" with his parents, Noni, and Auntie yesterday--it was amazing, but I was really bummed hubby wasn't able to come due to his chronic itching and rash.
Now he is on a corticosteriod and an anti-itch oral medication, and his skin looks much better today...though the itch persists. Thankfully, it is not contagious, so he can't spread it on himself or anyone else more. The doc said it could last from 2-4 weeks. For his sake, I am hoping shorter...Especially because vacation is happening in less than 3 weeks.
