Question by michellegoesrawr@ymail.com: Do eczema flareups still occur even when not in contact with the thing you’re allergic to?
So recently I found out that I may be allergic to chicken & eggs. It’s not certain as I have not gone to the allergist to find out but every time I eat chicken it gets REALLY bad. I still have dry, cracking skin on my arms, legs, back and neck. But since I stopped eating chicken it’s not really inflamed or that bad. Is it just because I don’t moisturize? o.o Or am I missing something?

Yes. It takes up to 48 hours for the chicken to go thru your intestines. Then, the components of the chicken go into your blood. Until used up by the body. But, if you are allergic, your body had produced anti-bodies, which hang around and jump on, that is, cause inflammation, on every chicken associated molecule in your body/blood. The next time you eat chicken, the army of anti-bodies recognizes it instantly and goes to war, so you get more of reaction much faster. Does that make sense?
I would go to an allergist, immunologist, NOT a dermatologist. They think too topically. Don’t touch a chicken or an egg for a couple of weeks before the appointment.

Question by scoobylovesannabelle: What is the difference between contact dermitis, psoriases, and eczema?

Answer by uchaboo
Psoriasis are huge, big flakes that are usually in the hair. They look like mega size dandruff. As for eczema, it is a condition that affects the skin. Like, for example, I get that around my neck every summer. It is usually white and itchy. I have to use a cream every time, during the summer, to control the itching. Personally, I think it is like hives. That’s what i think.

About three months ago I went to the dermatologist cause I have like a red irritation on the side of my penis and its right under the head on the foreskin. The dermatologist told me it was contact dermatitis and perscribed me some hydrocortizone cream. I’ve been tested for every std and they came back negative. My worry is why hasn’t it gone away completely? It looks like a brownish/blueish/purple line and when it flares up it gets red than goes back down… Sometimes it has dry and flaky skin and is very sensitive. I have no insurance to go back to the doctor plus don’t feel its nessassary. I just wanna know if anyone can help me out with what’s going on cause I can’t find any information online. Thanks for any help. P.S. I am circumsized
