what is this???
hi i’m looking for help please 🙏🏻 i’ve resorted to asking reddit because nobody else knows what’s going on or how to help me. i’ve been so so many doctors for skin issues, which started on my hands and has now spread to my entire body, especially my face which is swelling up like crazy. i woke up and my whole head and face was as it is in the first photo, completely swollen, painful, dry, but also leaking clear fluid from dry skin on my cheeks and eyelids. some background info: went to the doctors for an issue on my hands, got prescribed cetraben emollient and an antifungal cream ( daktarin ). this didn’t work at all and made it worse, and made a rash spread down my arms so i stopped immediately and went to another doctor. i was then prescribed hydrocortisone for my face, fucibet for my hands and arms, oilatum shower gel, aveeno moisturiser, and then finally flucloxacillin antibiotics. these seemed to work well for the 10 days of use as instructed, but the second i went off them i flared up so badly and everything just came back worse, and flared up in other places i hadn’t beforehand. i have just been using the aveeno and oilatum for about a week but this morning woke up like this. i went to urgent care immediately, and got prescribed more flucloxacillin to take for 7 days and that was it. it’s been 12 hours since getting out of the hospital now and the swelling has gone down slightly but it’s definitely still noticeable, and my cheeks and eyelids are still leaking a clear sticky fluid. does anyone have any idea what this could be caused by?? i have just moved in with my grandparents as well about 2 months ago which is when this started getting worse, but it was already there before so i can’t be sure if it’s a reaction to something in their house. i just have no idea, and i need help figuring out what is going on with me.
also, if you see this and you know me. no you don’t.
thanks x
