Can Exposure To Sunlight And Heat Cause Itchiness And Swelling In The Neck?
I am a 60 year old female. I take Levothyroxine .05 for hypothyroid. I also have a vitamin D deficiency for which I am taking 3000 UID per day. Last week I was on vacation in AZ and had plenty of sun and heat. While there, I started to experience an itchy sensation on my neck. I am now back home and the itchy sensation has not gone away and is in fact stronger. There is no rash and lotions do not soothe it. I also seem to have a tin taste in my mouth.My husband commented that my neck seems bigger or fatter.Your thoughts?
