red hair pain sensitivity image
Bella Rose
I got my eyebrows waxed for the first time 4 days ago and I have noticed red bumps along the top of my eyebrows. Is this normal? Is it just caused by sensitivity or could I be allergic to something they put on it?
Thank you for your help!
Answer
This is common and could be caused by a few things. It sounds like you're having a mild reaction to waxing.
You can try putting a dab of hydrocortisone cream on the bumps, this might reduce the redness and get rid of any itchiness.
In the future, if you have your eyebrows waxed again, there are a few pre-waxing steps you can take to reduce the chances of getting these red bumps again:
# Exfoliate. LIGHTLY exfoliate skin before waxing, even if itâs just a mild shower gel and washcloth. This helps rid the follicle of oil and debris.
# Apply some heat. By taking a warm, not hot shower or bath, or applying a warm compress right before waxing will open up the skinâs pores and soften the skin, allowing the hair follicles to come out easier. This not only helps with the pain factor, but helping prevent irritation from the wax pulling on the skin.

What are the side effects of taking methotrexate?
Q. And how likely is it that it will damage your liver, and in what way? My doctor went over a few of the symptoms with me, but I'd like to have a better understanding of what I've been putting in my body.
Answer
The following are considered minor or annoying:
Acne; chills and fever; dizziness; flushing; general body discomfort; hair loss; headache; infertility; irregular periods; itching; loss of appetite; lowered resistance to infection; miscarriage; nausea; sensitivity to sunlight; sore throat; speech impairment; stomach pain; swelling of the breast; unusual tiredness; vaginal discharge; vomiting.
However, seek medical attention right away if any of these show up:
Severe allergic reactions (rash; hives; itching; difficulty breathing; tightness in the chest; swelling of the mouth, face, lips, or tongue); black or bloody stools; blood in the urine; bone pain; calf pain/swelling; change in amount of urine; chest pain; confusion; dark urine; diarrhea; dry cough; enlarged glands; fatigue; fever or chills; inflammation of the pancreas (stomach tenderness, nausea, vomiting, fever, increased pulse rate); irregular heartbeat; mental changes; mouth sores; muscle weakness; persistent sore throat; red, swollen, or blistered skin; seizures; serious infection (herpes, hepatitis, blood infection); trouble breathing; unusual bleeding or bruising; unusual pain and discoloration of the skin; vision changes; vomit that looks like coffee grounds; yellowing of skin or eyes.
Thing to remember is ALL medicines cause side effects. All side effects listed for any medication are there because they were reported during drug testing or shortly thereafter by Dr. via patient.
Good luck. Very prudent question also, always wise to be concerned what you're putting into your body.
