Breaking out because of food allergies

[diana3]

I never knew i was allergic to any type of food.. but recently coming back from vacation.. i guess i found out that i was

I think it was some type of oil used in an asian restoraunt, but the right side of my face totally broke out.. if you're far away you cant see it but under light and close up its all bumpy. THis hasn't even happened to me :/

what would be a good way of making all this go away quicker? i stopped using my face products in hopes of that it'll help but it really hasnt. Hah.. im probably too quick to judge because i broke out yesterday morning but yeah.

PLEASE HELP!

sounds like you might need some benadryl (i'm not sure of the spelling). if it's something in ingested you may need something orally rather than something to apply topically. if it's making you itch i would suggest maybe calamine lotion or aloe vera gel. with the benadryl you should see an improvement in a couple of days! hope this helps.

Yes, Benadryl..the oral medication, not the lotion or gel...and it definitely helps.
