Avatar m tn I had a patch test for a hair dye on my right arm around that time, and my arms have had with raised areas that itch since around then However I did not get any skin changes or itching around the site of the patch test itself! I had also used a new hair dye (unrelated to the patch test a week before, with no itching or problems with my scalp. The itchiness on my arms seem to be worse at night, and are not there constantly as they seem to come and go during the day.

Avatar f tn For 5 years I had this odd patch of skin in my ear that itches and peels off. It started out as a small patch on my left ear that i easily hid behind my hair and tried to forget about but recently it has been spreading. Now it is in both ears so badly that i have to pick the skin off to hear right and has also spread to both eyebrows and even my right eyelid! It's becomeing embarassing to have peope see it but everything ive tried hasnt managed to get rid of it.
Avatar f tn Patch of skin starts as rash turns into blisters ask my doctor he gave a list of issues but now it is coming back we thought spider bite but now that it is returning that is not the problem. Haven't had chicken pox ever, sexually active but married cheating not an issue, did take antibiotics keflex, just had ear surgery. It is itchy in the beginning but once it blisters it is tender any clues?
Avatar m tn I'm a 22 years old male teenager. Since a year ago I've had this reddish (could be purplish) circular patch on the sole of my left foot, near the foot arch. It's about 3 cm in diameter, slightly raised and itchy, but it doesn't have any skin peeling or smell that's associated with fungal infections I used to have. It's aligned to the region between the sole and the normal skin that cover the top of the foot, and doesn't spread towards the top of the foot.
Avatar f tn My daughter, who is soon to be 3 yrs old, has a red itchy patch on the inside elbow joint. She is holding her arm close to her chest and keeping it bent. She is not complaining of pain, but says that it doesn't itch as much when the arm is bent. I have tried creams and lotions, thinking it may just be dry skin. She has had this for 3 days and we are not noticing much change. I don't know what else to do, or if it is worth going to the doctor about. Any advice would be helpful.
5389263 tn?1367258662 I have a patch of skin under my bottom lip and on the tip of my nose that has become sort of like a scab.
Avatar f tn The bumps are not particulary red, they are really hard to see, easier just to feel the bumpyness on my skin, but they are pretty itchy. In addition to the patch on my back I now have a patch on my chest, above my breast, that is particularly bad. The doc gave me a steriod cream and an antifungal, neither seem to be helping. The redness is decreased on my back, but it is still raised and itchy.
Avatar f tn Hello, This dry patch can be due to dermatitis skin or eczema. Even atopic dermatitis can cause such a dry patch. There are certain other non-pharmacological measures which are equally important in treating atopic dermatitis.
Avatar m tn The last 2 years or so i've had a flat red non itchy red patch on the head of my penis. I've had this checked but my doctor told me it was nothing to worry about. However there is now a second red patch forming about a 1/10 of the size and i'm starting to freak out.. I went and got this checked at an std clinic since my GP told me the same thing he did 2 years ago that it was nothing to worry about.
Avatar n tn I HAVE A PATCH OF SKIN ABOUT THE SIZE OF A NICKLE ON MY LEFT BUTTOCKS (UP HIGHER TOWARD MY BACK, THAN DOWN ON MY CHEEK) THAT IS ITCHY AND SCABBED OVER. IT DOES'NT ITCH CONSTANTLY, BUT WHEN IT DOES ITCH- IT REALLY ITCHES. WHAT COULD THIS BE?
Avatar m tn I had pityriasis rosea in February. And this sounds just like it, it's mainly caused by stress. If you have one larger patch, then it's a 99% it's this - this big patch is called the herald patch, and usually comes first. And I know the feeling, I just wanted to completely cover up because it was horrible. You'll have to get the doctor to properly diagnose this though. You can take anti-histamines to get rid of the redness and itchyness (they usually get itchy if you get hot).
Avatar f tn I have had this patch of skin on my face for about two or three weeks now. it isn’t inflamed or anything and is rarely itchy. it doesn’t seem dry to me it’s just strange. i’ve had eczema as a child so i’ve put some of that stuff on and it’s done nothing. i put lotion on every night and during the day and i cant seem to fix it. it’s just red and shiny.
Avatar f tn I have dry itchy skin even when I'm not pregnant and I find that Eucerin Calming Cream works the best. It's a little pricey but I think it's worth it. I don't know if it's normal but I haven't heard that it's not.
Avatar f tn I have one small flaky patch of skin in my pubic area. It isn't itchy, painful or sore. But the skin is very flaky.
Avatar m tn She found that eating certain foods, such as eggs, shrimps would aggravate them and made them turn red and very itchy. There was at time when a patch seemed to recover, and then another patch close to the original patch would flare up. Can anyone share his or her thoughts?
Avatar f tn Non itchy red patch appear randomly around whole body, large cluster red bump or small patch behind thigh and around body randomly sometime itchy sometime not, single skin colour or red bumps far apart from each bumps around forearm, arms, thigh and leg, and small itchy bumps on index finger.
Avatar f tn Is the skin itchy or showing any other symptoms than just being a black patch?
Avatar f tn Occasionally she has a REALLY bad flair up, like the one she has now, Her entire upper back and shoulders become COVERED with tiny flesh colored bumps and at the base of her neck she gets a big leathery patch of dry itchy skin. There are other smaller patches but this is the main, and largest one at the base of her neck. She also gets a small patch on her forehead in the creases of her nose and under her mouth. Currently she's having a really bad one.
Avatar m tn Anyways, the day after I noticed that I developed a small patch of red skin on my upper thigh near the fold where leg connects to groin. Within that patch of red skin are tiny redder dots. Since we are both virgins I don't think this could be genital herpes. Also, I have began to put anti-fungal cream on it and just regular lotion and the patch and dots themselves have gotten less red/inflamed.
