Oh wow, I have no clue. Are you worried about it causing problems for her or you?
Do you have any cream or anything to put on to maybe help it heal and discourage her ravaging you
? Have you taken some antihistamines like benadryl?
Sounds like Pipp is feeling better though
I lost this post until now. I was (and am) definitely worried about her, I never worry about problems from my bunnies, I even laugh when they bite me. :craziness
Cream is supposed to help, moisturizer is good for eczema, but I'm even more worried about her licking off the cream -- although somebody pointed out skin creams are tested on bunnies in the first place, so they're safe. :tongu2: I don't as a rule get along with antihisamines, they make me vibrate and feel weird.:nerves1
And Pipp is feeling great!! Eating her veggies likea little horse, desperate for her (very) limited oats and pellets.
Her litter habits headed south though,and haven't returned. :X
She's been waking me up inthe mornings to groom me - which is unusual, she usually waits until I have at least one eye open:whatevah- but the eczema at least for the moment is gone from my face, it's just on my hands, and she can't reach them.

I've been having similar issues lately. My hands, face and neck (especially neck), and also my belly button have been itching and rashy.I even have something going on in my ears! It itches like crazy. I've been bad about scratching them with cotton swabs(I'm probably making it worse).
I tend to get this sort of thing every Spring, so I'm pretty sure it's allergy related for me.
Hey Laura, you described me to a tee! Except I've never really had it before, so I don't know if its seasonal. I'm not allergic to much else -- dish soap when I was a kid, and more recently tomatoes when I handle them, although they'veonly ever affected my fingers.
I think this was initially a tomato outbreak. It had pretty gone away
but it popped up again last night when I was sorting through the bag of bunny veggies. It may have been tomato residue, or I'm allergic to multiple veggies. Or something. I'm just happy that it no longer appears to be a food ingestion allergy -- I doubt that I'll have to stop eating wheat, soy, dairy and/or the myriad of other things that seem to be bothering people these days. (Although if its a contact allergy from veggies, the bunnies may be in trouble if I can't prepare their dinner!)
Any idea when triggers yours? Do you get hay fever in the spring? Or just excerma?
sas (aka scratch) :huh
