Allergy to alcohol ? rash, lump, and blister on back of neck Posted: 11-24-07 05:42am
Hello, i just wanted to ask a few
questions, sorry if i posted this under
the wrong subject as i dont really know
what it is.
So, i was at a party a few days ago and
cut a long story short, in the following
days i started getting a rash on my neck,
a scab on my ear, weird blister things on
the back of my neck that pop and a lump in
my neck with a smaller lump near to it. i
was just wondering if you knew what this
is and whether it was a reaction to the
achohol or something? thanks for any help
you can provide me with.

Given the symptoms yo report of a rash,
scab, “weird blister things”, and
lumps on the back of your neck you could
be experiencing some type of skin
inflammation. Skin inflammation can be due
to infection, allergy or local toxic
irritation. It doesn’t seem likely to me
that the skin lesion is a “reaction to
alcohol”. You can visit your GP and a
dermatologist if necessary.
