Common Questions and Answers about Treat alcohol allergy rash

alcohol

Avatar n tn I asked my doctor the other day and he said he never heard of such a thing but to go home, get rubbing alcohol and put it on my forearm. If a rash appeared, then I am allergic to alcohol. So I did, and nothing happened.. It seems to be only when I ingest alcohol internally. So I'm guessing something in liquor? I have no clue. So, I was wondering if anyone knows what it may be? Oh, also, if I take 2 benadryl it does seem to help. I don't know!!!
Avatar m tn A few hours later my boyfriend complained of having a burning penile rash, which I assumed was from an allergy to the Metronidizale. He went to the hospital and got a cream for it. Now, several days later, he says its "better" but still complains of being raw. He also did bizarre stuff like apply alcohol to his penis. Have you heard of such an allergic reaction. What can we do now?
Avatar n tn I was wondering what in Beer could I be allergic to that would make me puke after no more than 2 sips. I can drink hard alcohol and never puke, but if I take a few sips of beer it's instant projectile vomit... and then I am fine again.
Avatar m tn My doc also told me it was an allergy to the sun. Only exposed spots show a rash and if I am in the sun, the rash is 10 times worse. I never actually "tan" but rather just remain a blotchy red all the time. And the itch is ridiculous!!
Avatar n tn You can take antihistaminics prior to consumption of alcohol also but pls get yourself prescribed for them from an allergist.Also it is true that allergy to alcohol can cause anaphylactic reaction which may be life threatening. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how you are doing.
Avatar f tn (((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((((TRIGGER))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))) I am allergic to all metals except titanium. Everytime I cut I use stainless steel blades, razors, etc I immediately get a rash at the site's. So I end up burning them because they itch really bad.

Avatar f tn Last spring, it began with a rash across her cheeks. As the weather warmed, she began developing a rash on her arms and eventually a light rash upon her legs. As the spring turned into summer, the rash subsided. I took her to her pediatrician last year and was received with a shrug. No explanation was given and so I did my own research over the months and concluded she may be reacting to the sun. So I patiently awaited this spring to see if the same thing occurred.
Avatar n tn My eye rash started as a bit of raw skin at the outer corners where my eyes would tear, then spread to the fold of my upper eyelids, and now the entire undereye area of both eyes is painful, itchy, red and raw. After drinking alcohol the eye rash becomes much worse and causes me great pain. I have had an allergy test and are only allergic to milk and nuts. However I have discarded these foods from my diet and still have the same problem.
Avatar m tn I am 17 and just recently lost my virginity to my boyfriend who was also a virgin at the time. We are in a monogamous relationship and were essentially each others' first kisses as well, so STIs are not a concern. However, after we initially had sex, I noticed a rash developing on my pubic area. It was red and extremely itchy and ultimately began to become scaly and flaked off.
Avatar f tn It definitely sounds like you could have some type of allergy to alcohol! I have a friend who has very similar symptoms after drinking but his normally starts within about 6 hours of having a couple of drinks. Alcohol allergies at some level is surprisingly more common than most people think. My advice, talk to your Dr. about it just to make sure its nothing more serious ie: liver issues. Good luck!
779797 tn?1263618235 s called intoxication, not allergy. None of your symptoms point to an alcohol allergy. I suggest you stay away from it. Why make matters worse? Have you seen a doctor for any of these symptoms? Something as simple as an inner ear problem can also cause dizziness. Allergies can pop up out of nowhere. Did you test positive for anything?
Avatar m tn Avoid wine and alcohol products if you know that they trigger an asthma/ allergy attack. There are already a number of wines without the preservatives that causes the allergy. But have yourself tested first with what you are allergic to.
Avatar m tn What do you mean by pimples is it an itchy rash as it could be an allergy, change your shampoo to a non allergic one, there is something called scalpitch out there that soothes you can get it from most drug stores.
Avatar m tn Thanks for getting back,I did cut alcohol out entirely. gone back to 5mg lamictal until I see my doctor. Mind you the Allergy test came back negative for Steven's Johnson, or any other allergy to Lamictal when I did that 4 weeks ago, or else I wouldnt have gone back on it. Thanks again for for your input.
Avatar m tn Excessive alcohol consumption causes the blood capillaries to swell and what u see in ur cheeks is them rupturing close to the skin surface.
Avatar f tn I mentioned the allergic reaction to the gynecologist but she said that the rash on my lips and the Fluconazole were unrelated and gave me some antihistamine tablets to treat the new rash. After having used the prescribed medications, I woke up the next morning to the same itchy red lips and tightness in my throat. I stopped taking the medicine she had prescribed, took the remainder of the antihistamine tablets and the rash and tightness once again went away.
