Avatar f tn After getting home We have noticed red, itchy bumps developing on our legs and arms, mostly where our skin was exposed to the sun. They are getting increasing worse. This is day 3 at home and my legs are covered with these itchy bumps. My arms are almost as bad. What should I do? I can't stand the itching!!
Avatar f tn Is this a sun allergy? It only happens when I am out in the sun. They burn and are itchy. Will a certain sunblock help prevent this? Or what can I do?
Avatar n tn Not unbearable but bad enough to see a dermatologist who told me I am alergic to the sun - stay out of sun and wear sun block. I stay out of the sun. It is five years later. I went to a second dermatologist who took a biopsy of one of the itchy bumps that have become a new symptom. She told me I have a drug alergy and I should have my primary physician change my medications. I told her the only drug I take is lorazapam.

1528052 tn?1291763940 For the last 4 months I've been getting itchy bumps all over my upper torso; My back, neck, arms, shoulders, stomach, and right near my pubic area.There are rare occasions that I don't get the rash, but when I do it's right after P.e or after I've taken a shower/bath. I have changed my laundry detergent and am now using Arm and Hammer (for sensitive skin). I've stopped using my regular body soap and I use Dove liquid soap.
Avatar f tn I am a 26 year old male and I have been getting these bumps on the back of my hand from sun exposure for the past 5 years. At first I tried to use sun block and avoid the sun because I knew that the sun would just give me a reaction. I always noticed that in the Spring/ early summer was the worst time for these bumps to occur. So I decided to create a little experiment!
Avatar f tn It may range from solar urticaria which may manifest as welts and itchiness on the skin to chemical photosensitivity which may appear after applying sun block or skin creams following sun exposure. However, what is of interest here is that, both you and your friend actually experienced the same condition. This may increase the likelihood of a skin irritant or allergen which you both could have been exposed to.
Avatar f tn Thanks for you information. These spots are no Itchy and they are not bumps just white spots on the skin. Have you ever heard of putting dandurff shampoo on these spots or tree tea oil?
Avatar m tn over time they have spreaded all over my body and some are just red bumps. i have them everywhere and in the last few dayson my genetals except from my face and neck. they are extremely itchy and have not responded to various forms of anti histamine or hydracortazone. i have changed washing detergents to a non biological one and i use no other chemicals or shower gels except from frangrance free soap and even these varieties have changed.
Avatar n tn My skin gets unbearably itchy every time I get even the slightest sun burn or even just lay out in the sun. Why does this happen and what can I do to prevent this on vacation in Florida?
Avatar f tn For over 7 years I have been getting a rash on my chest, back and now forehead with sun exposure. It is multiple tiny red bumps and whiteheads, not itchy. Onset is usually 24-48 hrs after sun exposure and lasts approx 4-5 days. I have gone to several dermatologists who give me creams for (rosecea, ploymorphic light eruption, allergy, etc.) Nothing works. I have had a full autoimmune work up as well- with all tests being negative.

So im really confused what is this I thought that is std symptoms but they told me i did not have risk for my std exposure so I seek here maybe I got solution.
Avatar n tn Hello, Without examination it is very difficult to confirm a diagnosis, but it can be solar keratosis(small rough or scaly areas of skin due to damage from sun exposure), Dermatosis papulosa nigra(firm, smooth, raised, dark brown to black bumps occur on the face and upper trunk; usually runs in families) , seborrheis keratosis(small lumps due to a thickening of an area of the top skin layer) ,syringoma(bumps caused due to overgrowth of cells),moles or freckles.
Avatar n tn I recently developed a rash around my lips and mouth 2 days ago that is now spreading upward around my eye. The rash consists of small raised bumps that are slightly red and very itchy. The rash looks similar to pictures of contact dermatitis. The roof of my mouth feels itchy as well. I also developed upper respiratory tract infection with a slight runny nose, cough, and sore throat.
798332 tn?1237474175 Interferon and ribavarin will make your skin extra sensitive to sun and susceptible to burns. No suntan bed on treatment either - in fact those things are really bad for you at any time. BTW, the treatment for melanoma is interferon! Good luck with your treatment. Be sure to use a lot of sunblock and keep covered in the sun. You will be amazed how fast you burn.
Avatar n tn Are these itchy? This appears scar like , more like a pigmented skin condition. Do you stay under the sun for too long eg tanning , sunbathing? Do you engage in sports wherein you have to stay outdoors for quite sometime? I would suggest that you start using sunscreen to cover most areas of the body exposed to the sun when you stay outdoors. At this point, this does not seem to be a wart nor do I think this is infectious.
Avatar f tn Hi, I'm female, 13 yrs old and i have had this rash for monthes now. At first I tried my mom's face cream.(olay regenerist microsculpting cream) and I was allergic so I had this huge bumpy red rash, that was crusty and swollen. Only on one side of my cheek. It was swollen so much that i looked like a half sumo wrestler. My lymph nodes were also swollen. So i went the doctor. They gave my antibiotics, allergy cream, and allergy pills.
Avatar m tn I consistently get a itchy, red, blistery rash after sun exposure. It doesn't really have to be that much exposure and it just started in the last couple years. I'm 30. Does anyone know what this is and if it's serious? What can I do to relieve the intense itch? Is it dangerous?
