Eyelid eczema help please :(
Struggling a lot to write this post as it’s been the worst having to deal with this for so long… have been to 3 different dermatologists with eyelid eczema, the first prescribed me a steroid cream that temporarily hid it and it kept coming back, then the same again with the second derm and the third heard me out & gave me pimecrolimus cream that was the biggest success but again only temporary relief before it’s flared up again…
context: It cropped up I think when I moved in with my partner who lives right next to the sea & im wondering if it’s the humidity, although im from a small town that’s about a 15min drive from the sea.
Pretty sure it’s contact dermatitis but unsure what allergen is causing it
Is it worth trying to get a patch test? Anyone with eyelid eczema did a patch test with any success? I’m really getting desperate & looking to go back onto the pimecrolimus that I’ve got lying here just to control all the redness around my eyelids. Thanks in advance for any advice
