How Can Eye Lumps With Itching And Watering Be Treated?

I recently had poison oak around my eyes and on my arms. It has healed up, but I still have itching around my eyes and my eyes water constantly, and there are little bumps around my eye brows, above and below. I have been taking zyrtec and have used some hydrocortosone cream, but don't want to continue with the cream. Anything I can do?

Hello
Welcome to health care magic.

I reviewed your history. It seems from the history that you are having itching and bumps around the eye following exposure to a poison.
These symptoms indicate inflammation because of a probable allergic reaction. If I were to be your doctor I would have preferred to use steroid creams and anti allergic drugs.
Hence I advice you to consult your doctor for examination and treatment accordingly.

Thank you
