Should I be worried about a fungal infection if the painful, swollen rash under my eyes and on my earlobe has not improved after my first dose of Allegra?
A single dose of Allegra (fexofenadine) needs more time to work, and it primarily treats allergic reactions rather than infections. A painful, swollen rash around your eyes and earlobe could stem from various causes, including contact irritation or a localized skin infection. Because the rash is painful and near your eyes, it is best to have a healthcare professional examine it. They can safely determine if it is fungal or bacterial and prescribe the correct treatment.
