Possible Causes of Swollen Eyes and Rash All Over Body
It can happen suddenly after eating, or it may manifest over a few days’ time. Whatever the cause, a rash all over your body and eye swelling can be alarming.
1. Seasonal Allergies/Hay Fever
Seasonal allergies to environmental substances can make your eyes swell. External allergens can also cause you to develop a rash on your body. Things like tree pollen, grasses, blooming flowers, and nut harvesting can cause your body to react this way. You may notice this happening most often in the spring and fall seasons, but can happen any time of year depending on what you’re allergic to.
Other Symptoms: Coughing, runny/stuffy nose, sore throat, low-grade fever, and headaches.
2. Lyme/Erythema Migrans
Lyme disease is caused by tick bites, and is a bacterial infection. Some ticks carry bacteria in their saliva. When they bite, they feed on the blood supply of the host and can transmit the bacteria into your bloodstream causing the infection. It starts as a “bullseye rash” at the site of the bite. The infection can cause swollen eyes and rash all over body within the first few days. This condition needs medical evaluation and treatment as early as possible to prevent complications like chronic Lyme, severe joint pain, brain swelling, and even death.
Other Symptoms: Fever, headache, nausea, stiff neck, joint swelling and pain, delirium, and profound fatigue.
3. Poison Ivy
Going for a hike in the woods can be a fun and relaxing pastime. If you allow certain plants to brush your face, the toxins in the leaves may cause a skin reaction. This can make your eyes or even your entire face swell. Poison Ivy, poison oak, and poison sumac can all cause skin rashes, inflammation of the skin, and swelling where contact occurred. Scratching the site of contact and not washing the hands can spread the toxin to other areas of the body, causing the rash to spread.
Other Symptoms: Severe itching, blisters, redness in the contact area, watering eyes, swelling to the entire face, and pain.
