Irritated skin no rash! Help!

Posted , 2 users are following.

So I’ve had really irritated skin now for 4 weeks! I’ve been referred to a dermatologist but that’s gonna take a while! 

It’s my chest, neck and now my face! There’s no rash, can be a little red when I moisturise that area though. 

The skin feels really tight and irritated and sometimes slightly itchy! 

What could this be I’m so irritated and worried it’s spreading..

    Are you using any new soaps / sunscreens / moisturisers?  Sometimes some products have a cumulative effect, so you don't notice immediately but irritation builds up over time.  Stop anything you are using on these areas for a few days to make sure that this is not caused by irritation to a product.
