Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I get a rash on the side of the bridge of my nose where my glasses sit. It s red and gets bumpy/rashy, but only when I wear my plastic Gucci frames. When I wear my plastic Ray Bans, it clears up. I was wondering what could be the cause of it when I wear my Gucci frames? It never used to do that before, but since I ve started using Epiduo Forte and Hydroquinone, I get a rash when I wear the Gucci glasses.
Hi, As you have noticed, the rash may be a hypersensitivity reaction to the material used for your Gucci frames. The use of Epiduo Forte and Hydroquinone may enhance this condition. I would recommend you to take a Benadryl pill and see if you still have the rash. If it dissappears it means that it is an allergy to the material used in the Gucci frame (It can bee paint or whatever they have added to the plastic), and you will either stop using those frames or wear them after taking a Benadryl pill. If the problem doesn't solve, which is highly unlikely, then you will have to see a dermatologist for a more specialized examination. Hope I have answered your question. If you have any further questions I will be happy to help. Wish you good health.
