please please help. I woke up today and my forehead has gone crazy....al red and inflamed...its extreamly itchy I don't know what to do I've put hydrocortisone and calamine lotion but I can still feel the itching. I dunno if I put too much bp on it last night which has caused the reaction....i just fldont know how to treat this. Im literally at my wits end now I won't even leave the house.PLEASE HELP...
Bp burn,you gotta remember that bp is a chemical,too much and you get chemical burn.
also another observation after coming off bp all time.i noticed if i got break out and used bp/panoxyl it kinda reacted with moisturiser and made my skin go red.
to treat it,just wash,dont apply bp,just moisturise your skin.
try not to apply too much.
Yep done this many times, Quadboy is right, for tonight, skip BP and you can use the moisturizer. However what I did to fix this issue was washed my skin, applied a cold compress (cold damp washcloth) to the area for a minute or two, and then put on aloe vera lotion ( banana boat) i think it is and you can also put your moisturizer on, I use vanicream lotion which works well. But if you do not have these things, skip BP in this area, wash your skin, and just leave it or moisturize. For me I had it happen right under my eyes and it was red as a cherry. now doing what i explained above has made it completely go away within about 2-3 days. Just have to watch when you apply BP in that area anywhere around the eyes as it is sensitive and when you moisturize don't put it anywhere near the eyes as well because it wil pick up the BP from underneath and get it there. Also id make sure to use Dans moisturizer or something like vanicream as there are some moisturizers that might make it worse. I know Dans is ultra gentle and has no irritating chemicals in it. Lastly, i wouldnt use calamine lotion or itch x or any thing of the sort as that made it worse for me when i tried them.
