I would see your GP about this. If it's a rash or swelling, get someone to take a picture next time it happens so you don't have to cry at the doctor!

its sending me around the twist, their not red and theres no swelling,of to gp next week with a neck thats locked,could be in there all day[lol]

My eyes itch alot and suffer with dryness so I have to use a prescription lubrication, but I've never heard a question like yours before! You can borrow my marshmallow camp bed if you like;)

Seriously,I hope you get relief v.soon and am interested to know what the answer is.

your'e not allergic hunny,it's part of fibro i'm afraid,three yrs ago i had to have mjy friend come and bath me because i could not stand the feeling of the water on my skin,i too had problems with my own tears,it was the same feeling in my eyes as having a bath or shower, but don't fret it will pass,fibro has it's own little game when it comes to the "norm",just see it as a passing phase ok...bless you! luv betty xxx

You really need that sorted asap Lally don't you. Do you mean it burns all the time? :(

Can you use baby wipes or face wipes instead of water to wash your face?
