Avatar f tn I wonder if some aloe vera gel would help.
Avatar f tn just looks like sunburn, reddening of the skin and has no other characteristics than it feeling hot, like sunburn. in some cases it can appear and disappear in 10 minutes depending on the situation im in, other times it takes a little longer to disappear. i have tried to search many skin conditions on the internet but can not find anything which matches, as no other symptoms persist. hopefully this helps.
Avatar n tn This might be exacerbated by dry skin conditions.The most important aspect of sunburn care is to avoid exposure to the sun while healing and to take precautions to prevent future burns. The best treatment for most sunburns is time. Given a few weeks, they will heal; however, there are a number of treatments that help manage the discomfort or facilitate the healing process. The skin can be hydrated by applying topical products containing Aloe vera and/or vitamin E, which reduce inflammation.
Avatar n tn Vinegar is an acid , you may be allergic to it ,. use other emolient creams .
Avatar f tn I don't know for sure but it could be dry skin or could be from your deodorant. Sometimes when you sweat a bit it can cause irritation I've had something like that before burning no dermatologist :) it sounds like sunburn too but it could just be irritation of some sort.
Avatar n tn Have been on Lamictal one year, then all of the sudden this sunburn rash started on the back of my neck and then chest, and now full body. Dry, red skin, itchy, hot and tender like a sunburn. I was out in the sun without a shirt for about 30 minutes the day before the rash started. Has been 2 weeks now, and still have it. At first my doctors did not believe it was the Lamictal since I had been on it for one year already.
Avatar m tn I have had itchy skin for about a month now. My arms began to itch as well as my legs thighs and butt, recently however it has become worse. I have small white/skin coloured bumps all over body (these are the extremly itchy one) as well as red bumps on thighs that have more recently become un bareable. But the main reason im posting is because my penis began to itch about a week and a half ago today.
Avatar n tn Hi, This seems to be a bad case of sun burn.A sunburn is a burn to living tissue such as skin produced by overexposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation, commonly from the sun's rays.The only cure for sunburn is slow healing, although some skin creams can help with the symptoms. Typically there is initial redness (erythema), followed by varying degrees of pain.Other symptoms are edema, itching, red and/or peeling skin, rash, nausea and fever.
Avatar n tn Do not scrub your skin or shave your skin and use a soft towel and gently pat your skin dry.Also use a sunburn Over-The-Counter remedy containing aloe vera and a light moisturizer or a dusting powder to relieve chafing.You can apply silver sulfadiazine (1% cream) on the skin except face and see if it helps.If the symptoms still persist then you should consult a dermatologist and discuss the option of dermabrasion or laser resurfacing. Hope it helps.
Avatar n tn Also one should always wash with a loofa as previously stated by LLWB because it has a porace structure allowing the particles to be grbbed and pulled away from the skin with much better results than say, a wash cloth. Hope this helps and good luck to your son and you Best Wishes R.
Avatar n tn s itch, also called cercarial dermatitis, is a skin rash caused by an allergic reaction to infection with certain parasites of birds and mammals that are released from infected snails in fresh and saltwater. Itch may also result from skin infestation by body lice, including head lice and pubic lice. Most people who have itching, however, do not have a serious underlying condition.” However it is difficult to diagnose without examining.
Avatar f tn I have had burning itchy stinging pain comming from my under arm towards my breast and aroung my back to shoulder blade have had for about 4 days but seems to be getting more intense,, there is no rach or redness but feels similar to extreme sunburn and at times feels muscular have been getting tempoary relief from ice
Avatar f tn The day after this dose is when the rash grew, covering my stomach, shoulders, arms and legs. It was real red, like a bad sunburn, bumpy, itchy. I was treated with a week of steroids which helped some but the rash stayed a couple of weeks and peeled. I was okay for about 3 1/2 weeks and then every 2 weeks since I get a rash very similar to that big one. I have tried to get info about it, the only thing that sounds somewhat like mine is a radiation rash or radiation recall.
Avatar m tn During my times of lapse in protection, my skin has burned to the point of blistering at its worst and manifesting as bizarre sunburn, non-itchy blotches on my arms (I really don't let my face or my legs get touched) at its best. I never really thought about it; I just lived with the sensitivity. However, after urging by a co-worker I began to research my issue and discovered that it may be a symptom of something more serious, like lupus.
Avatar n tn Also wear cotton clothes and keep the skin sweat free. If the symptoms persist then please get it examined from a dermatologist. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.
Avatar n tn It could be sun poisoning or it could be a contact dermatitis that is activated only with sun exposure.
Avatar m tn We had just gotten back from the beach. I had a slight sunburn on my back. Nothing horrible. I have had many sunburns before, including some that made me blister. This was just slight pink. On our first night home (about 3 days after I got the sunburn) I woke up with this slight pins and needles sensation on my back. I thought nothing of it and tried to go back to sleep, but I couldn't. 3 or 4 hours had passed by and it was driving me crazy. I tried putting aloe vera on my back.
Avatar n tn s feet (clear in the middle, different sizes [biggest is probably about half an inch circumference], not raised, not painful, not itchy, the skin outside is pretty normal, not flaky). They were mostly on the soft part (where the arches are) When i rub on them they disappear kind of like a sunburn when u put pressure on it it turns white then red again.
Avatar n tn I am a male in my twenties. For as long as I can remember I've had several skin tags on my neck and one in my armpit. They were small but still made me self-conscious. I recently took to the internet for ways to get rid of skin tags at home, as I'm unemployed and without health insurance. One method utilized an apple cider vinegar application three times daily for three weeks.
Avatar f tn But today, I was out in the sun for 10 hours in 35 degrees Celsius (95 degrees in Fahrenheit). The skin on feet is red and so is the skin just below my knee. But only my left foot stings. I don't know if this is a sunburn but if it is, I was wondering how to treat it.
18471869 tn?1469397785 When I am out in sun and for get to put chapstick with spf my lips are dry and itchy for the next few days, howerever this time it has become dark and scabby on top and bottom lips in the center. I played Volleyball for a couple hours about 2 weeks ago. So I'm thinking this isn't related to being in the sun. I'm dealing with yeast infection and psoriasis issues on my body/groin area as well. Could this be related? 30yo healthy young prof black man!! HELP..
Avatar m tn About 3 months back I had unprotected sex with a female, a month later I started feeling this high heat sensation in my penis and follow that I started to have a hot sunburn type feeling in my thighs, which seemed to spread and get worse. I was tested for chlamydia, syphilis, gonorrhea, and HIV, all of which came back negative.
