Itching forehead after healing mass

[johnnyjones]

Okay this might be odd but it’s a factual occurrence. I went to a healing mass 3 weeks ago and was anointed with oil on the forehead. Obviously I’ve showered numerous times since that mass but I keep having an itching feeling on my forehead. Has anyone ever heard of that or had it? I can tell you it’s a constant reminder that I went to a healing mass.

I’m curious why you posted a thumbs down on this reply. You come across as positive and encouraging, to me.

As far as I know, the Oil of the Sick is made from olive plants, among others. Do you have any allergies that might be a part of it?

Oops, that was my bad. I don’t know where that came from.

God Bless and ICXC NIKA.

Thanks for pointing that out about the olive plants etc. I’m not aware of any allergies to those substances though nor do I have a red mark or any visible sign of irritation.

I don’t like oil aaanywhere near my face, and grimace anytime I’m annointed. It makes deeeep, under the skin pimples on me. oil can get into the skin easy. It’s possible you have irritation on a lower layer of skin.

It’s either a constant reminder that He works in you… or perhaps that there indeed is something you’re sensitive to. Still, I’d think that it would’ve washed away any irritants by now.

This could be one of those times the Lord wants your attention in a really complete and thorough way. Set aside some time to go somewhere by yourself (your room, a less-traveled path in the woods, a study carousel in your school library) and just say “Here I am, Lord. You have my full attention.”

Sounds reasonable. I’ve cleaned the area much more vigorously than normal but it persits. I guess if it’s under the skin it hard to remove. Strangely it still feels mildly oily on the forehead.

Sometimes, vigorous cleaning can be an irritant. Your natural oils will make your skin feel mildly oily. Especially on the forehead.

Then it’s just one of those strange things, not mystical, just based in some unknown irritant to my skin that time will elimnate. If it doesn’t, I’'ll be back.

Sometimes, it really is a reminder of a powerful spiritual event, too. Then again, my mom swore she had morgellons until she got under the care of a dermatologist.

Try washing once per day (no more) with mild cleanser and fingertips only (no scrubbing) and possibly a super-mild moisturizer (e.g. Cetaphil). Sometimes, it can be necessary to skip the cleanser (wash with water only). If you happen to use hair products (spray, gel, etc), it can get to your forehead.

Thanks for the info. As far as hair care products I’ve been using the same stuff for years and did not have this problem until the healing mass. It’s a very minor irritation, but it exists.

Still, even familiar products can maintain an existing irritation. It’s best to set them aside until it’s cleared up.

Best advice is to see a doctor :thumbsup
