Avatar f tn I have had this rash for about 3 weeks. It keeps spreading, it started on my chest now its on my chest stomach back shoulders and neck.

Avatar f tn So I've had a rash spreading for about 2 weeks now. It originally started with minor bumps on my underwear lining.Heat and sweat made the skin more irritated and helped it spread. I'd compulsively scratch whenever drifting in sleep. Some bumps have started to scar and become scaley. About a week later a rash started appearing on my neck. I recall waking up drenched in sweat and a minor itch on my neck. I mildly touched it throughout the next couple days without any noticeable changes.
Avatar m tn Hello, It can be due to atopic dermatitis, eczema, heat rash or fungal infection if it is spreading. The treatment for all of these is entirely different. I suggest you to get an evaluation and a KOH examination of the skin scrapings done to confirm the diagnosis for any fungal infection. Biopsy skin can also be done. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Avatar f tn I get a rash often between my thighs that I believe is heat rash. The pain from the rash comes and goes but my skin has gotten thicker and darkened in that area now. I also have developed small, painless bumps in the area. There are at least 50 on each leg; they are flesh colored to light brown and raised. They are pimple like but when squeezed, nothing comes out (they do bleed a little when squeezed.) I have had these bumps for several months.
Avatar n tn t really itch but the rash itself kinda burns. it looks somewhat like a heat rash but more red and swollen. the large welts have not gotten any better and the rash is helped with OTC benadryl but stays and gets worse when no benadryl is taken. we went to the urgent care center because about a year ago he had a severe staph infection and was treated pretty easily with an antibiotic injection (rocephin??). at this visit they said it was folliculitis and tinea something (ringworm). the dr.
Avatar n tn sounds a little like heat rash, or a rash from sweat just from excessive rubbing etc.
Avatar f tn This summer, while in Dublin (so no ridiculous heat) I have gotten the rash again. this time it is much worse and is spreading very quickly. I went to the doctor the first two times I got this rash and he prescribed me different creams which did not seem to help. I then went to a dermatologist who prescribed me something else. After a few weeks of using this cream, I found the rash was exactly the same, so I stopped and slowly it began to heal again.
293157 tn?1285873439 Hi everyone, I'm taking Gabapentin and up to 1800mg a day...I was taking 2100mg a day, but felt too tired so I lowered it to 1800mg .. I've had this rash on my neck for the past week or so.. it's spreading down my chest area and hands...parts of my face. It looks like Hives...but I'm not sure if it is. My GP is away for another week and can't see him... could you get hives from gabapentin...it's the only med that is a new med for me...
Avatar n tn These can be contact dermatitis, sweat dermatitis, heat rash or due to viral exanthematous disease. Without examination, confirmation of a diagnosis is tough and so confirmation is necessary.Till then make your child wear cotton clothes and apply calamine lotion on the bumps. Hope it helps.Take care and pls do keep me posted on how your son is doing or in case you have any additional doubts.Kind regards.
19312103 tn?1475589302 A couple weeks ago I had a rash show up under my breast, I used power, helped a little then I noticed that it was getting larger, so I told my cancer doctor and they said it is a heat rash then prescription of Nystatin to use and have used it for three days and no changes. It seems to be spreading across my chest. It doesn't really itch or hurt any, accept when I put the powder on. Oh and my blood count is excellent and I have been cancer free for 10 years now.
Avatar f tn It started with a rash on the back of his hand. Roundish, spreading outward, cracked, scaly, tiny blisters. It went away for a couple of months, and then came back with a vengeance. Then he started getting patches on his arms, torso, one on his neck, between his fingers. .. We just don't think it's ringworm because it's not spreading to anyone else and is been months. He holds our 15 month old all the time. It's only on him. I'd be curious to know what you think.
Avatar f tn Sweat rash or heat rash is still a differential .However do you also note other similar rash in other parts of the body? If this is heat rash, avoiding hot and humid places is necessary .Avoid excessive sweating or engaging in strenuous exercises which may lead to excessive sweat. This should resolve in a few days time and does not necessarily need any urgent intervention. You may apply light and mild cream over the area.

Avatar m tn I have recently started a sous chef job in a restaurant and since then I have developed a rash/break out on my neck spreading to my shoulders and back. For the first two weeks it was small but now it is rapidly spreading and worsening alternating in small white heads and hives, how can I cure this and prevent this?
Avatar m tn Hello, It can be due to allergic reaction, scabies or heat rash( less likely). If it is painful then herpes is an important possibility. Scabies is a contagious skin infection caused by a parasite – the mite, which burrows under the host’s skin and causes intense allergic itching. It is transmitted from objects or beddings, but more with direct skin- to – skin contact.

Avatar m tn Hello, From the symptoms the possibilities of boils, heat rash, sweat dermatitis or scabies rash. Diagnosis of scabies is made by scraping the skin and viewing the material under a microscope to see the characteristic mite or eggs. My sincere suggestion is to get it evaluated from a doctor. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
Avatar n tn I devloped a rash below the incision site on my neck. It looks like a heat rash but burns and itches. I do not know if this is a reaction to betadine, pain medication, or the IV antiboiotics I was given. How can I determine which it is? Is it common that these might cause a rash? I do not have any rash on other parts of my body....just my neck and upper chest area.
Avatar m tn So you guys would think its just an infection or heat rash of some sort? I'm traveling right now, but going back home next week!
Avatar f tn r last night due to the rash spreading and after explaining all this to him. I get diagonosed with hives and prescribed a steroid shot (which i think it inflamed the rash worse this morning), predisone, & a topical cream. I read your not supposed to take predisone with a yeast infection due to it making it worse and iv already been diagnosed by the first doctor (not tested by either doctor just examined).
Avatar n tn I have been to an internal medicine, Derm, and allergist and no one can figure out what is going on with me. I had an outbreak of a pimple/blister like rash all over my arm and legs. I was put on a heavy dose of prednisone starting at 40mg then 60mg next round, steroid cream, benadryl, sarin lotion. Finally after months it went away. It now is back and on my neck and spreading on my cheeck and chest. Im going through the whole routine again but nothing is helping.

Avatar m tn At first I thought it was just itchiness on my scrotum, but then things started getting worse. I noticed a few red spots on my penis and the rash started spreading to parts of my inner thigh, as well as near my anus. It's a red rash, scaly, and extremely itchy. The rash has spread to cover most of my penis now, where it was only a few spots before, and my scrotum is constantly very itchy and painful, possibly from scratching.
Avatar n tn My wife has a rash broken out all over her body. It seems to be spreading and is painful. She doesn't have a fever or other symptoms. She suspected shingle but it is all over as I said before and doesnt seem to follow a nerve tract or anything that would lead me to believe it to be shingles. She hasnt changed soap, deo, or anything like that. Could this in fact be shingles?
4874331 tn?1361466885 I BURSTED with a Rash that looks like allergy and is spreading all over my body: mainly located on my breast, chest, and spreading to belly and back. I have tried hydrocortisone 2.5% and benadryl. I've used oatmeal and that seems to calm it down a bit, but it has become frustrating. I'm currently 16 weeks today and I got this las Monday or so. Has anyone else also experienced this type of rash so early in pregnancy.
