awwwww.
Lainie, I am so sorry. Do you think the tic will change into something else, or is it maybe time to reconsider the Orep (is that the med?)?. Also please let us know how the 504 goes.

Hi Paula,
Well the good thing is they come and go so hopefully this one will phase out soon.
It looks like eczema to me. All three of my kids had it. Have you had him tested for allergies? My primary doctor calls it the 'itch that rashes'. If they are eating something that they are allergic to, their skin itches, they scratch or rub it, and the eczema rash appears. A good allergist might be able to help Nic. Poor Nic looks miserable.

Hi Drea,
Thanks, both my dd and I have/had exzema, and I know how miserable it feels when it itches,
Okay .. As far as the face and what he did to it. My suggestion treat it as you would impetagio. Or at least the way I remember having it treated when I was a kid.
Wash his face with Phisopex, i think that was the stuff My parents used. Then put bacitracin on the redden areas and once it heals up a bit. Switch to Vaseline. At least it might cut down on what looks like wind burn
As far as the mouth tic and lip licking. Does Nic chew gum? Maybe for now let him try chewing gum and see if it might cut down on the need to lick his lips. It would hopefully keep his mouth moving to satisfy that urge and maybe keep him from the need to lick. Either that or try a lollypop. If either idea works(sugar free obiviously if it helps) maybe just put it towards his IEP that Nic can do the lollypop/sucking candy/gum until this latest tic passes. I guess the main idea is to try and keep his mouth occupied doing something else.
I know what its like to tic. And I know what tends to trigger me more.When extremely tired.
