How Can Itching And Burning Sensation Around The Eyes And Nose Be Treated?

I have very cold upper arms, dry itching skin and dry eyes that are burning and crusting near the edge of my eyes at my nose. I itch all over scalp and arms and legs and my upper arms are cold. This has been a few days and I don t know why it won t go away. Drinking more water, using drops for eyes, Systane and wearing layers on my arms. I do have glaucoma but use dorzolamide twice a day. Have had lens implants for cataracts a year ago.

General Surgeon 's  Response
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
This could be due to fungal infection of scalp.
You can apply anti-fungal lotion like Clotrimazole lotion over scalp. Anti-fungals can also be needed, if symptoms persist and consult a dermatologist.
Wishing you good health.
Thanks
