rash on my back

In the center of my back about an inch below my bra line, there is a small patch of rash. It first started as small pimple-looking bumps and slowly got better... Well, so I thought. Just as I thought they were going away, it turned into a rough patch that itches but I can't scratch it because when I do, it hurts so bad. There are four stray bumps of the same type on my stomach, but they are no where else on my body.

Its on my right side of my lower back. It was a swab and it did not say hsv1 or 2 just herpe simplex virus. How would I even get that on my back?

About a week ago I got a strange skin rash or infection on my back, Its sore and a little painful, It has delevoped small blisters. Its about the size of a half dollar. Any ideas what it could be? it dosent seem to be going away.

My son is 15 and about one year ago I noticed markings on his lower back. I thought is was from him leaning on the back of our dinning room chair because the marking were red and pressed in, about one inch in width and there was a large red bump on his spine. Over the course of one year he has about 15 marking on his back and they now look like stretch mark slits, one inch in width ranging down the middle to lower back.

Hi! I have had an itchy rash on the back of my head for the past 8 years. It is reddish, mostly flat with some raised bumps (some become pimples). There are areas of red that coalesce and thicker areas of skin. I have tried washing with Selsun Blue shampoo before, and occasionally tried Clindamycin gel on my skin with little improvement. Can anyone suggest a diagnosis and a cure? I have included the picture below.

I have an unprotected oral sex with Asian sex worker in Australia and protected vagina with condom 9th March. Many red rash on my back begun 2 weeks after. I am very worried, is it the symptom for syphilis？ No symptom on my penis.

Ok, so about 2 months ago i returned from a vacation to Mexico City, when i started developing a rash on my lower back which started with a mosquito bite feeling bump (it itched). I had not had sexual intercourse for almost 9 months, and she was a virgin (seriously) we were both each other's first. I was prescribed an antibiotic for what almost looked like a pilonidal cyst. The rash went away for what seemed completely for a while, but then the bump had returned.

I have been getting this rash primarily on the back of my hands as well as my elbows for the last 10 years or so. The rash is not itchy and consists of small red bumps which are swelled and after a week or so start drying out starting from the middle and working its way out. While this is going on small rings develop since the edges are swelled slightly while the middle is drying and swelling going down. I have been to several dermatologists and none of them have offered any explanations.

I have one raised red bump on my back and a few on my lower arm with some goose bump looking bumps. Can this be HIV rash? I had exposure 4 weeks ago.

I am 15 and have terrible acne on my back. The weird thing is, my back is the only place I get it. I would not be concerned but it is very painful to lay down on and the blemishes are huge and swollen. Does anyone have a remedy or answer that will help this terrible rash dissapear?

I have an American Bulldog, he has a rash on both back legs and he is constantly chewing/scratching at them. Are there things I can try to make this go away. The vet wants to try different antibiotics but has no idea as well. His food he eats is Kibbles and Bits dry food but he has been eating this for about 6 months and this rash has just occured. Any suggestions would help.

Mine appears on the inside of my arms, the backs of my knees, down my rib cage sides, lower back,and now on my ankles.The itching is so severe at times that it bleeds. And it still itches! Through numerous visits to my dermatologist and PCP, no answers were found either. BUT, I found a website to help me that I know you will be VERY interested in! It has worked miracles for me! Click on Freederm .com and go from there. I promise you that you won't be sorry!

I've tried everything to get rid of it, but it just won't go away, can someone please tell me what this might be?..

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 itching. Topical and oral steroids are needed. Water, sweat, and soap may cause irritation and should be avoided in the disease. Topical zinc oxide and calamine lotion are useful for pruritus.

I agree with Pooh's advice and I used the same meds for my rash (pics on my profile where you can see the effects of the meds). One member, Dresden O, the original poster in Pooh's link, admitted himself to the hospital due to his severe rash. You're right in resolving not to give up so just be highly proactive in getting the rash under control. I hope it gets better for you and I feel for you.
