I have incredibly sore and itchy hands that betnovate barely keeps under control. I am breast feeding and hate using it, but have to sometimes as they are split, red and raw and will become infected if I am not careful.
I asked to be referred for allergy tests and was told that it was very very unlikely it could be food related and in patches like it is on one hand. Now I know that DS2's eczema is food allergy related, and I know some foods I am allergic to as I immediately get such itchy eyes and mouth it is unbearable.
Is food allergy causing skin problems that rare?
I'm thinking of changing Drs anyhow as I have various issues with her.
Many thanks
