Question 3

stacey has unusual swelling around her eyes and lips that are comming and going. her eyes appear to be black around them and her lips are dry all the time no matter how much lotion she puts on them?

Accepted Answer

Allergy: It sounds like allergy.  Allergy causes dry, scaly skin with swelling, redness and itch.  Avoid allergen that could be either food, or environmental elements.  You can get allergy test.  Eczema can causes dry skin too.  Take Omega 3 essential fatty acids, coconut oils, nuts with plenty of fluid. cold compressors around the eye helps with swelling.

Accepted Answer

Wrong place: Flonase is usually used for the nasal cavity. However I can see how it may be used for the ear canal when it has an inflamed issue.  Nonetheless the aqueous nature may induce a fungal infection in the ear canal instead.  You need to consult an allergist to find out what may be causing the ear problem. Perhaps the fluid is causing a fungal infection &amp; and the flonase is counter-acting it.
