Q: Itchy Rash!
asked by: Naybelline on December 8th, 2007
New User
Hiya all...
I've been experiencing rashes for quite some time now.. and I've had numerous allergy tests that have came back with nothing... Anti-Histamines don't seem to do their job... and I'm wondering what they could be... as they are getting more wide spread and more frequent, they do come and go....but different places every time..but mostly my arms and back.
I'm at the end of my tether as the nhs don't wanna seem to do anything... but give me meds that don't work. Sad

For how long exactly you have rash?
Can you explain the initial attack of itchy rash? Which body part was the first place to appear with rash?
Is this rash flesh colored small little pimples as it looks to me on the picture?
Has it changed its characteristics in a meantime?

Been having it since about January now.
It comes and go's on different body parts, can be anywhere... Arms, back, legs, neck...first place was the neck back in January then it has changed since then from being like hives too goosebump/pimple like.
Yes it is flesh coloured.

Are they wide spread and scattered or crowded together in clusters on different body parts at the same time?
Do you have them on your scalp, too?
Do they burn and bleed when scratched?
Are you stressing too much?
When do you usually get the most intensive itchiness?

Do you usually get burning sensation first and then red, itchy bumps?
Do they look like tiny water blisters before being scratched off?

Have you been able to figure out what is causing the rash? I have a rash that looks exactly like yours. I have had it for over a month and have been to my primary care doctor and an allergist. Neither know what it is. I am seeing a dermatologist soon and hoping to get some answers.

I have the same thing but it is on near my arm and neck area.. there are some small very very tiny reddish blisters after a while. I sometimes take antibiotics and I heard that causes it... esp during allergy seasons even some medicine or food can cause it like cashew nuts.. which I love.. any ideas anyone??

rashes that comes and go's in any parts of my body
Hi everyone, i have the same problem too. when my baby was 5 months old, i started getting this red rashes any parts of my body (mostly on my legs, chest)- big/small round rash. Then my second baby was a year old, it came back again. Now, my right eye swollen, my lower lips swollen. Scalp getting more itchy, neck (especially at night, i couldnt sleep) way too itchy). It comes and go. Crazy. Doctor couldnt figure it out why. Please anyone could help me Sad.
