Itchy Red Body Rash

by Jessica
(Georgia)

Two nights ago I was awakened by intense itching all over my body from the neck down. I woke up again at six to feed my five month old and was still itching. I woke again at 8:30, and finally checked it out - red itchy small bumps all over. An hour later, they disappeared. Today I was sitting in church and it happened again, by the end of service, they were gone.

I'm 32 years old and I was restarted on two medications two weeks ago but do not see any correlation with the timing of the rash. I have no change in soaps, detergents, or fabric softener.

Any ideas?

Only Itchy When Touched

by Courtney
(US)

I have a rash that began on my stomach and spread to my hips, back, and chest within a matter of a day. I noticed it about a week ago when just my stomach was covered in little red bumps that were only itchy if I touched them. Then by the end of the day, it had spread to my chest and back. It isn't painful or dry. It honestly just looks like a bunch of little red bumps but I've never had this problem before so I know it's some kind of rash. My dilemma is I don't know what's causing it. I have not used any new soaps, detergents, medications or clothes. Nor have I eaten anything different than I always do.

Small Colorless Raised Bumps

by Rebecca
(South Bend, Indiana USA)

This skin problem started on my back after I used a sweat belt for the first time for a couple of days. Then, it spread to my neck and then, above my breast. Then, it spread down the sides of my breasts, in between them and under them and then, all over my stomach and sides. I thought maybe it was bed bugs at first but the bumps are not the same. It itches relentlessly. I have no clue what caused it. I thought maybe it was the belt so I stopped using it. Then I thought maybe it was an allergic reaction to the Brazil nuts I started eating, so I stopped eating them but it just kept getting worse. I want to find out what it is cause if its contagious, I don't want to spread it to my fiance and kids. My sister said it could be a yeast infection as well. I haven't come in contact with any plants that I shouldn't have. I thought it was a heat rash so I did everything I was supposed to do to treat that but it never went away. It just keeps getting worse. I rubbed olive oil all over my body to see if that would work as well last night. So far, no relief. Any suggestions?

Additionally they sometimes turn brown

I have numerous red welts on my arms and hands. I have had this for six years. They do not burn or itch but are very unsightly. They emit a stringy substance. I do not help the situation much by using tweezers to pull out the stuff. Nobody knows what it is. Anyone have such a thing?

Inflamed itchy bumps on both sides of groin area after scabies infestation.

I got scabies over a month ago, and during the time I was infested by the parasite I noticed an inflamed itchy bump on my hip and groin. It started spreading and I now have lots of those bumps. They are on both sides of my groin area and they itch so bad and become more inflamed when I scratch. This recently started spreading like this about two weeks ago.

Small Red Dots Rash on Arms

by Ely
(CA)

I am 34 years old. About ten years ago small red dots that look like a rash developed on the skin on the back of my arms and then one to two years ago the small red dots rash spread to the front of the arms as well as to the skin on my shoulder area. The small red dots do not hurt or itch and there are no other specific symptoms. I do notice that the density of the small red dots skin rash sometimes increases and sometimes decreases but the rash is always there and it never goes away. I would like to get some skin rash treatment suggestions or skin rash remedy suggestions of what to apply or what to do in order to make this go away? Also, does anyone know what this type of skin rash is and what may have caused it. I have provided several pictures of the skin rash on my arm in order to help with the skin rash diagnosis.
