I know I have contact dermatitis. I have all the signs and symptoms of contact dermatitis. And from what I have researched and studied (I’m a nursing student), the treatments and medications I have used have resolved the problem (although it keeps coming back).
I went to visit the school clinic’s doctor today, and she diagnosed me with nummular eczema, because she saw some chicken skin-like patches on my arm. I don’t know if it’s right, but she’s been a trusted friend.
Here are the signs and symptoms I have:
>itching at night
>allergy to dust, uv rays, too much cold, contact with elastic, rubber and nickel.
>flaring (allergic flares – worsening of condition) during perspiration
>hives (both small and large ones. My body looks like a world map with many islands when I get allergic attacks.
>bronchospasms and airway constrictions (This happens when I have allergic attacks and hives don’t appear.)
>dry skin
>small nodules similar to chicken skin
>dark marks left behind after too much scratching
>scratch marks
I had really good skin condition before this. One can even call it flawless skin but now this? It’s really bothering me.

Try to figure out whoch one i have. My so called “doctor” told me i had cellulitis, which was (excuse my language) but, total bull. I researched and looked up different rashes, and skin allergies/irritants, and turns out i have eczema. But i’m not sure if it’s Atopic dermatitis or Contact dermatitis. What’s the difference, cause they both kind of look the same. Help?

So I just recently figured out that I think I have contact dermatitis. For the last month I have had dry, itchy, red, slightly bumpy, scaly skin on my eyelids and they get swollen every once in awhile. I was reading up on it and found out that Quaternium- 15 is a typical ingredient in shampoos and stuff that can cause contact dermatitis. I am desperately trying to figure out what is causing this on me cause I can’t afford a doc, so I looked at my shampoo and found Quaternium- 18. So my question is is that the same as Quaternium- 15? Also, I have heard hydrocortisone cream helps. True? Any other suggestions? Does this sound like contact dermatitis?
Thanks for the help. It is greatly appreciated since I don’t know what else to do and this is driving me crazy.
