Skin Rash Posted: 01-08-04 17:08pm
I have hive-like red itchypatches that
started on my belly. They have been
continuing to spread onto my back up my
neck and even on my head and down to my
pubic area. They itch and when I touch
them they flare up into hives. I don't
know what to do, please reply soon.

Have you tried antihistamine tablets
(& if available there creams)??
You could try having a long soak in warm
(not , repeat not hot) bath with
pinetarsol, or calamine lotion, or apple
cider vinegar. Problem is that as we're
all different, so different things work
for us. If you have any chance of having
a fever take asprin/tylenol. Think about
when this started & whether you had
started using anything different, washing
powder, soap, perfume, new
clothes/underwear????
You must not scratch them as that might
cause them to become infected.
The other suggestion is go to er or dr,
certainly you need to do this if the rash
continues!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
