Wondering on Wednesday

May 22, 2024 | 14 comments

Oh, mama, that rash is going to be…uh…fixed, don’t you worry!

Okay, this is pretty weird, but mama seems to have broken out in a red rash, which began, well, I must admit, it began when…uh…I went off to another of my nine lives, and what she has is called perioral dermatitis and leaves not-so-nice red marks around her mouth and sometimes under her eyeballs.

Has anyone had this or does anyone know anything about where it comes from and how to FIX it?  Uh, we don’t like that word around here but in this case, fix is appropriate.

Three dermatologists do not seem to know what to do but mama is using Calcicate cream and fusique acide and has given up fluoride toothpaste (!) and sun and it is settling out a bit. Funny that fluorides could be a cause, no?

SO…wise and experienced readers, if anyone out there has a suggetion for helping this, MERCI.  I rememer that many of you are healers and knowledgeable about non-medical cures, which mama prefers, but at this point, any thoughts are welcome.

I was sad that my departure might have stimulated this rash…mama has never had a rash in her entire life! But I send her healing thoughts and memories and I’m sure they will help…

Merci for anything  you know about what is called PD.

Purrs to all and a wondrous Wednesday.

I wonder if a little bit of tea made from nip in my garden might soothe mama’s skin….

LouLou we do not know what to do about Mama’s rash but we send purrayers and Power of the Paw that she gets better. Our huMom had hives once after a very stressful week and that was enough.
