Hello All, I am venturing into new territory. It just dawned on me that a good experiment would be to try a medical grade CBD oil tincture on my hairline and see if it affects the redness. CBD is the nonpsychoactive part of marijuana that is being…Continue

Silversurfer, please do not do the recluse thing. Life is really too short. I cut back on socialising and spent too much time agonising over my hairline. I would still like things to be different but that is not going to happen. I am getting it together now and can tell people about FFA. Yes, I resort to a hat, use a scarf and spend time styling but I make myself participate. The rewards are worth more than the embarrassment.
Hello Ladies, I've been away and am trying to catch up. So good to hear from my cyber-friends again.
Annie, I hope you have now seen a doctor about those forehead symptoms. Certainly sounds like a significant allergen reaction, and you need to know what treatment is causing it. I hope you can clear it up quickly.
SilverSurfer, I'm sorry to hear about your eye troubles. I'll be sure to have my retinologist check for that as well. Thanks for the tip. As for becoming a recluse, please-oh-please grant yourself the relief and contentment of a lovely wig. I'm more of a GraySurfer, but we're never too old to do what it takes to feel good about ourselves!
Debs, thanks for the detailed report from your herbalist. You're doing good things in your approach to a healthier lifestyle. Sadly, there are many things there I cannot add to my system or regime, but I am intrigued by the 'tincture' you'll be getting to help control inflammation throughout your body. Can you let us know what the ingredients of this tincture are?
Hi all, I'm just wondering if anyone has had the symptoms I'm experiencing now. My forehead is tender and feels tight. I also have mild swelling from my hairline to my eyebrows.
