Hi there i am a Hepatitis b carrier but not active (what ever that means)... I also have a fatty liver.. I have always suffered with Eczema... As a child I had it really bad but then it went away in my teenager years and now its back again... I am 42 yrs.  I have severe itching on my face... I ended up in hospital because I had a staph infection on my face recently, I wasnt sure if it was a spider bite or I scratched my skin and it became infected... My forehead is the most itchiest area and around my upper lip.  Please is there anything I can do... Im tired and just want to go to sleep but cant as I scratch the most while sleeping and wake up with a sore face... HELP...
Hello, Thanks for posting, Well I am not sure your itchiness is related with your fatty liver diseases or the fact that you are a Hep B carrier (with no symptoms or liver problem related to that). The skin affection may just be local and could be as a result of eczema and in order to remedy that you might need some medications. At the moment, you can start by taking a cold bath, then get OTC antihistamines which you can readily fine. I usually prescribe chlopheniramine for itches and may associate it to steroidal anti-inflammatory such as dexamethasone or prednisone. You might require a doctors script in order to get a hold of those. I suggest that you see a dermatologist for immediate relief. Best wishes
