Avatar n tn I have a small area on my back, maybe the size of a babies hand that is pinkish and looks like sunburn.... is this consistent with ARS rash?
Avatar n tn I began to get a strange sunburn like rash around my neck only a few months ago (it has now gotten worse). It feels very systemic. It is not a typical rash. It is not raised. There are no bumps or scaliness. I posted in the thyroid forum because I am having thyroid issues and wondered if it could be related but my endocrinologist doesn't seem to think so (of course doctors are notorious for missing things that can be obvious). It's only around my neck and it's making me miserable.
Avatar f tn Two days ago I noticed a bright red rash that looks like sunburn all over my body (not my face). It hurt to the touch. It has since gone away mostly (no redness) but now I am extremely itchy. I don't have a fever but I have a headache, some nausea, body aches and pains (especially in shoulders, jaw, and lower back) and fatigue. I just don't feel right and I am having a hard time concentrating or focusing on studying (I'm a full time student). The itchy is driving me insane!
Avatar f tn - the butterfly rash, when I try to google it it looks very extreme. Does anyone know of a source of less extreme or maybe it doesn’t work like that? Can it be more faint?

Avatar n tn For two years now, I have suffered from a rash on my chest. It looks like a sunburn, and it burns and itches. The rash comes and goes. Could this rash be related to Lupus? Thank you.
Avatar n tn I have a very itchy rash that looks like ringworms. It goes away and comes back but only on my arms. When the sun shines on it, it burns like a sunburn. I have been to several doctors and have taken numerous medicines. No one knows what it is. It could be this, it could be that. PLEASE HELP!!!! The itching is driving me crazy.
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 n tn I've been to a dermatologist, that's who told me that I had tinea versicolor. But it doesn't seem to respond to any of the medication that has been given to me. The ointments don't make the tinea go away, they just make me break out. The rash, especially on my chest, just looks like I've gotten a sunburn through the neckline of my outfit. Except that it doesn't ever go away. It's not the red of a fresh sunburn but the dull red of a days old sunburn.
Avatar m tn I had a severe allergic reaction. Broke out in hives and while in the shower my tongue started swelling. Took Benadryl ASAP and the symptoms started going away. The next day I had a bright red ring around my abdomen. It looks like a severe sunburn and it very itchy. I've had two cortisone shots with no relief. I just started a new job and have no insurance for a few more weeks so have been going to a clinic but I'm starting to get worried this thing isn't going away.
Avatar n tn I have been hypothyroid for years with it under control for the past 3 or 4 years. I developed a goiter. The reason we found it was because I began getting a strange sunburn like rash around my neck that itches mercilessly. The rash is not raised nor is it bumpy or scaly. It looks like I was out in the sun all day with a necklace on and the burn has that type of pattern. My GP is trying to research this now because it has him stumped too.
Avatar m tn She takes Simvastation( Lipitor) and Alprazolam (Xanex). It looks like photosensitivity has been reported with both. Any thought as to which is the most likely?

Avatar n tn 50 mcg for the past 5 years daily. About 4 months ago I began to get this strange, itchy, sunburn like rash down the sides of my neck that has now spread to my entire neck area. It seems to grow stronger near my period and then it wanes only now it appears to be here to stay. I have not made any changes to what I eat, wear or exposures to anything new. The rash is nowhere else.
Avatar f tn Next day same thing but spots darker red on belly, back and neck, and looks a lot like a sunburn on face arms..feels like it too (radiating heat, sensitive to touch). Havent been in the sun. Ive been taking lamotrigine for about 2 weeks and I know its associated with some serious rashes. Went to GP when the rash wasnt this bad and she said its probably something viral and possibly the medication, talk to the person who prescribed the lamotrgine.
Avatar n tn 3 days after taking the cortisol manager, I developed a red rash that looks and feels like a sunburn on my legs. could the cortisol manager be the problem?
Avatar m tn Since yesterday my deltoids and half of my chest is red, it looks like a sunburn but I havn't been exposed to sun. Yesterday I used a corticoids ointment and it went away but came again, today after a cold shower it went away again but its slowly coming back. It doesn't itch at all but it has a small burning sensation (just like when you get sun burned) I havn't used any new shampoo or ate anything different from usual. I'm totally lost, what do you think this might be?
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 I started getting spots on my chin about 2 years ago, around the age of 30, and my doctor prescribed Duac Once Gel. The gel seemed to work (although it did make my skin dry). However, for the past year or so I have been developing a strange rash on my forehead which seems to come and go. The rash isn't itchy at all. It is like raised bumps all over my forehead and the skin appears greasy. The bums are generally skin coloured, not red.

Avatar n tn I am a 76 yo male. What may be the cause of an upper body rash , looks as a sunburn, and an itch on my left breast. No bumbs nor any sores. The only change in my ingestion in the days immediately preceeding , was a trial of using coconut oil with my cereal... only used a tablespoon or so. it is now three days and the rash is still there...

Avatar n tn I devloped a rash below the incision site on my neck. It looks like a heat rash but burns and itches. I do not know if this is a reaction to betadine, pain medication, or the IV antiboiotics I was given. How can I determine which it is? Is it common that these might cause a rash? I do not have any rash on other parts of my body....just my neck and upper chest area.
