i'm sorry you are having this issue. not sure what to tell you but i do know that i cannot wear pierced earrings with nickle in them as it makes my earlobes turn bright red itch like crazy and get all flaky around the piercing. i can only wear surgical steel posts now. (used to be able to wear cheap earrings with no problem until a couple years ago. ) you could also cut out the foods that seem to trigger it for a couple weeks. then if it continues have someone bird sit for you for a couple weeks and see if it clears up in the absence of the dander. don't do both at the same time though or you won't know which one was the trigger. if that still doesn't solve the problem i would say pay a visit to a dermatologist and see if they can help you solve it. good luck and hope you find your answer.
facial dermatitis down to two possible causes: nickel intolerance or my parrot's dander. what's more likely? . in the past year i started having skin problems on my face: i get patches of dry itchy skin and my eyelids keep getting mildly irritated. it can't be makeup or some kind of cosmetic product as i've tried to substitute everything and still get the same reaction. so i'm down to two possible causes now: it's either due to the nickel in my diet as the reaction is aggravated after i eat specific foods like nuts oatmeal and chocolate or it could be due to the parrot i live with and its dander.
