What Causes Recurring Red Rash Around Eyes, Nose And On Forehead?

My son has a recurring red rash around his eyes, on his nose, and in the center of his forehead. It is not due to a change in detergent or soap, and he has not had any abnormal diet recently. This happens about every few months, with seemingly no rhyme or reason.

Hello,

Welcome to healthcare magic.

Your son may be having an eczema which usually recurs and remits.

You may use a good moisturizer twice a day.

Use a soap free cleanser like cetaphil to wash his face.

Do not scrub his face.

Avoid excessive sunlight exposure.

Hope this helps you.

Take care.
