    Ok, so everyone says how you should not touch your face...Is it just me, or, when your hands are unclean, do you always get an itch somewhere on your face?!


    I always do!!!! LOL

    I am trying not to touch my face, no matter what. If I need to scratch
    it, I'd rather use some tissue or something. Of course, at home I
    usually use my hands.

    Hi there!!

    I totally agree!! It's always when you're hands are sticky, dirty, or covered with god-knows-what when you get that maddening itch on your face. I wear contacts, and I always have the same situation with my eyes---they always drive me crazy when I haven't been able to wash my hands first and don't know what my fingers have been in close contact with. Ugh!!!

    I even tie my hair back a lot so that it doesn't make my face itch. I'm sure I look funny scratching my face or nose with the inside of my shirt or my sleeve - but that is my idea of how to "safely" scratch.


    I also can't stand anyone, especially my kids, to touch my lips with their hands. I think that was true even before my emet.
