Reoccurring eczema under eye
Hi!
I have this red, dry eczema under my eye (sometimes also under the other eye) and it burns but doesn't itch.
It keeps coming and going away and coming again..
I've received an eye cream from the doctor that contains dexametason and kloramfenikol, it helps with the burning sensation at least but doesn't take away the redness.
What can be the reason for this eczema?
I work on a cruise ship where the bed linens are washed with heavy detergents, but that doesn't seem to be the issue since I switched them for my own bed linens at it keeps happening. It also happens when I'm at home..
Please help

It could be eczema/sun allergy/ or product allergy also. You have to see the pattern that which exaggerates the burning and try to avoid it. You can use the ointment given to you twice a day for 5 days and jeep ur skin moisturized.
