Avatar n tn Hives (medically known as urticaria) are red, itchy, raised areas of skin that appear in varying shapes and sizes. They have a tendency to change size rapidly and to move around, disappearing in one place and reappearing in other places, often in a matter of hours. The mainstay of treatment of hives is antihistamine which may be necessary for prolonged periods. Ti cifnrim the diagnosis I suggest you to get it evaluated from a pediatrician.
524608 tn?1244418161 I am becoming increasingly itchy in the last week...but no riba rash (only in 4th wk). I am very tired in the last week also since my hgb is dropping. Will I get the rash? I have even been out in the sun at work still no rash. Maybe being darker complected keeps me from getting the rash? Only 7 more days till I can quit my job....wonder if I'll make it?
1095057 tn?1257218879 From the lesion you describe, it sounds like a fungal infection on the skin. Without treatment it would spread. Consult a dermatologist in your area for proper treatment. Avoid using cortisone cream since it would aggravate the problem.

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 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 m tn I have a friend who is starting triple treatment this Friday. He has treated twice before and has been a partial responder. He was told that Vertex now recommends starting a week or longer before treatment and applying a combination of eucerin and hydrocortisone cream.....every day, head to toe. Supposedly this is to reduce the inflammation of the skin ahead of time, I asked if he had to continue through treatment, but he said no, only before he started.

Red spots going away, no pain during an erection etc. I am now getting what appears to be a itchy rash on the base of my palms, wrists, chest, and belly button area.

Avatar m tn t accompanied by other obvious skin changes, such as a rash, is most often caused by dry skin (xerosis). Dry skin usually results from environmental factors that you can wholly or partially control. These include hot or cold weather with low humidity levels, long-term use of air conditioning or central heating, and washing or bathing too much. Itchy skin on the arms and hands can be also be due to Eczema or contact dermatitis.Other conditions cause itchy skin as well.

960440 tn?1246966866 Pityriasis rosea is a common human skin disease which presents as numerous patches of pink or red oval rash. The rash may be accompanied by low-grade headache, fever, nausea and fatigue and sometimes by itching. No treatment is usually required. In most patients, the condition lasts only a matter of weeks or months(upto six months) If the rash persists then it will be best to get it evaluated from a dermatologist.Other possibilities have to be ruled out then. Hope it helps.
Avatar f tn 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.
Avatar n tn Then, after 2-4 days my skin was itchy, but no signs of rash; just itchy. My eyes got very tired so I decided not to use the contact lenses for a while. Then after 4 weeks I decided to give it a shot, put the contact lenses and I got very bad skin rash all over my belly, chest, arms and neck. After two days of developing the rash I decided not to continue using the contact lenses. Two weeks after I put the contacts and got a flare up of skin rash.
Avatar m tn 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. What is the cause of the itchy blisters on my hand and on my children?
Avatar n tn Last night I realized that I had a small patch of what looked like dry, bump skin. It wasn't red or itchy so I decided it was just a dry patch of skin and ignored it. Today when I removed my shirt I found that the small bumps had spread across both arms and onto my shoulders. They look like goosebumps on dry, slightly flaky skin. It's still not itchy or red. What should I do?
Avatar n tn So lately I've been feeling so itchy. Like all over my body, I don't get a rash my body just itches. I'm 12w 1d is this normal???
1095334 tn?1257248214 Like others here i have sensitive skin , i also developed a bad rash on several body parts , that itches and acts like a bad heat rash . I have controlled it with cool water calgon baths , gold bond cream, cold creams , and once a week to 10 days a steriod cream . I also use a Heath Food product Bovine Colostrum 20 % for Psorisis , that i have used for years , but doubled up the dose to 1 Tablespoon twice daily . And have now about 90 % controlled the rash , but still have some itching .
