Allergic reaction - but what is my Allergy ???? Swollwn sore eyelids!
Posted by fountainpen
Hi,
I have never been allergic to anything EVER !
I have swolen eyelids , soreness and red under the eyes.My eyelids are itchy too.
My eyes are fine not conjunctivitus nor hayfever problem is with the skin.
My doc said im Allergic to something.My eyelids are all horrible and puffed and red.
Ive was given antihistimaines - didnt work now some cream . Problem is knowing my Allergy.Does anyone know common allergies or perhaps has these symptoms that can give me a clue?
