itchy skin during exercise

I don't exercise often but when i do my skin starts to feel very very itchy all over my body. This happens everytime i exercise about 30 min. into jogging or running, is this normal? and what is causing this?

Hi It seems you are having hives with cold and physical stress/exercise acting as the trigger factor. Itchy red blotchy skin on exercise may be due to a condition called Exercise urticaria characterized by itching, or hives on the legs, arms, chest or neck during or after exercise. You should consult a doctor for a proper diagnosis.

FOr a couple of weeks now, my penis has been itchy. Especially where the ring of skin goes around the head, and where my penis touches my balls all day long. I have had oral sex with another guy lately, but nothing else. I have tried Lamisil, Cortaid and others to hopefullly get it to heal and go away. What is it? I hope it is just jock itch and not herpes! What do you think? I have a Dr. appt for next week, but was wondering what others thought. Thanks for the help.

i have itchy skin from child hood.And i often affected severe itching when i go otside on sunny days.On cool climate my skin becomes quite normal.what is the remedy.

Hello everyone, I am 19 week and I have itchy skin for the past 2 weeks now, I got rash over my inner thights and my arms, some on my lower back. I tried Aveeno oatmeal bath, Palmer‘s cocoa butter, Eucerin lotion, nothing works on me... what should I do????

Has anybody else been experiencing itchy skin? And not like the stomach or breast area but like the neck and chest???

Hi, This is a condition called hives.Hives are red, itchy welts or swellings on the skin that often come in clusters. They sometimes have a light red or pale center surrounded by a darker red area around the borders -- a marking resembling tiny bull's eyes -- but may simply look like large red circles. In doctor speak, hives are known as "urticaria." Hives can appear anywhere on the body, cropping up either in one small area or covering large patches of skin.

I'm getting itchy skin where I'm beginning to stretch (14 weeks). I've started putting cocoa butter on right after the shower and that helps, it makes skin more elastic.

I have been having like spots that are very itchy. The skin around them is red and the itch is intense. They are different size and the biggest is about 2 cm wide. They started to appear on the legs then the forearms, the elbows and now on my back. I have them on the same part of the body. Meaning I have some on the inside of my left and right calves for example. Same on the outside of my left and right thighs. After a hot bath they weep.

today is actually my due date for my first child. I had him at 20weeks. He was stillborn. So im pregnant again and my skin is really itchy. I haven't changed soaps or detergent In at least a yr. I didnt experience this with my first pregnancy. I was just wondering if this is normal?

For the past few years I have noticed res spots on my back that over time grow together and now cover a majority of my back and just recently I have been getting similar red spots in my inner arm between my forearm and bicep also on my neck and chest. Sometimes they can become itchy usally when it's warm or hot.

s probably a result of the hormones, which can do that (happened to me with both of my pregnancies). Depending on where you are in pregnancy, there are a couple of other things it could be, but I'd talk to your doctor.

Hi, The reason people usually get itchy skin in the winter is because the weather is cold and dry. The dry air makes your skin dry out causing itchiness and abrasions. Make sure you are getting enough water. if your dehydrated the lips are really dry and chapped and you can do a simple test to see if you are dehydrated other than the lips. Pinch (NOT HARD) a little bit of skin on your hand or arm then let go, if the skin snaps right back then your ok.

I am 20 wks and the last couple days I have been really itchy even though my skin is not dry. It's not on my belly either, just my arms and legs. Is this normal during pregnancy or do I need to see my dr? I have an apt on friday and I plan on talking to him about it but I just read some stuff saying it could be something wrong with your liver and it kind of freaked me out... Should I wait until Friday or call my doctor tomorrow?

I did a quick google, because I had never heard of this before, and it turns out that a lot of people have this problem. It's called exercise-induced itching, exercise-induced hives, or exercise-induced urticaria. If you look up any of those terms, you will find a lot more information. When your blood vessels dilate during exercise, histamine is released from the cells, and that's what causes the symptoms -- exactly like an allergic reaction.

I was literally just complaining about this to my fiance lol. My skin has been really itchy. Ill be 19 weeks tomorrow. The one thing that has helped a little is Johnsons baby lotion. I put it in the fridge for a few mins to get it cold, its really relieving. Hope this helps!

Have you tried putting a moisturizing lotion/cream on your feet to see if it helps the itching? You should moisturize your skin a couple of times/day during winter, more if you're not drinking enough water to stay hydrated. I have hypothyroidism, along with pre-diabetes - add in winter and the bottoms of my feet are cracked in numerous places because I haven't moisturized enough. You might give it a try for a few days and see if it helps.

Not so much a question, more like musing. I've read through as many of the postings as possible regarding unexplained itching. As a woman, I have come to believe that the itching is absolutely related to what I am ingesting. I have taken pains to change my diet, and exclude as many processed, GMO and non-organic foods as possible.

I have very itchy blisters on my hand. My children (2 and 5) also suffer from itchy rash which sometimes appears on their backs, legs, faces, hands, etc. A Dermatologist diagnosed the rash as fungus and prescribed a cream. However, the itchy keeps appearing at different parts of their body. This morning I noticed clear painless and non-itchy blisters on the shaft of my penis. I have been diagnosed with HSV-2 and I know the tingling sensation during a breakout.

But drinking lots of water and keeping your skin hydrated with a lotion will keep your skin elastic and help some. Also do NOT itch them if they get itchy, it makes it way, way worse!
