It seemed to come along with a minor breast biopsy. They don't itch but are just ugly and some don't look like they are not healing and may scar. I am taking an antibiotic for Lyme disease but the doctor says it also helps skin infections. Any ideas on what this is?

When I finally got a physician to pay attention to it he sent me to a dermatolgist. He said that I had gotten to far into the scatch-itch cycle, prescribed meds that over came the problem 2-3 mos. Now these hives have returned Do I need tranquilizers?

I've been dxed with RA but something else is going on too. Well "slapped face" (SF) took over the top of my thighs & upper arms about a month ago & lasted I guess a week. Well it came back with a vengeance 2 weeks ago left for 4 days & is back again. I am in so much pain right now. No one can get even close to me without me grimacing. My skin feels bruised, sun burnt, hot, swollen but it looks perfectly normal. I'm hot on the inside, cold on the outside.

This occurs when the sweat gland ducts get plugged due to dead skin cells or bacteria The trapped sweat leads to irritation, itching or to a rash of very small blisters, usually in a localized area of the skin.These rashes may simultaneously occur at a number of areas on a sufferer's body, the most common including the face, neck, kin folds, areas of the body that may rub against clothing, such as the back, chest, and stomach. Try to keep the area clean and dry.

They're are in the perfect circle like ringworm but i know its not ringworm because i've had it before and they don't itch or anything. I'ts right on the top of my left cheek bone and its driving me crazy because i can't cover them up and its the size of a quarter. Please give me any option of how to make them go away.

Shortly after that I developed a raised bump on my hip and each day I got more and more bumps although these new bumps don't itch. I have them now all over my body, oddly, except for on my face and neck. They go from a raised soft bump to a bright red flat mark to almost a blister like look in the center and they don't itch. I noticed today I have several large bumps and what looks like many tiny ones forming all over. Any ideas on what could be causing this?

My 20 yr old daughter developed a skin rash about a year ago. She has been seen by a dermo several times as well as a skin specialist. They did extensive tests in checking for allergies and found shes allergic to peanuts and animal dander. We have 2 dogs and 3 cats. She doesn't eat anything with peanut oil in it. She works in a department store with new clothes. I thought maybe coming in contact with these clothes might be a problem. Shes been working there for 3 years.

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 .

Hello, These can be due to heat rash, sweat dermatitis or scabies (most likely). Scabies is characterized by intense itching, usually at night and by small insect-type bites lesions on the skin. Diagnosis of scabies is made by scraping the skin and viewing the material under a microscope to see the characteristic mite or eggs. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.

I also hurt my back weeks ago but the discomfort in my back seems to link to my left testicle and my glands... The rash on my penis does not itch or bother me. It does not hurt to urinate and my urine is not cloudy... Also if this is just thrush, or balantis, is it bad to masturbate?? I am just worried as i think all of these symptoms look less and less like thrush... I might be worrying too much but an answer would be beneficial.

The very last time we hooked up, on Thursday, after we got done having sex the area around my vulva started to itch. It has itched everyday since, the worst around the vulva and on the lips not so much by the hole. It's Sunday and I woke up with little tiny bumps just on the lips, they are not red just skin colored. I have noticed my discharge is kind of cottage cheese like but with no odor. The only symptoms I am having are the itching and discharge. Please help me!

Also, on two different days, there was flaking of skin near the red areas as if it was dry skin beforehand. As for the redness on the head, it still seems blotchy and there are tons of pin sized white bumps on the head that you couldn't see until you looked extremely close so I think that's just skin. There's some parts where the skin may seem cracked possibly, but again, you need to look extremely hard to see it. And all this time, it hasn't hurt, itched, or anything.

You are already 100% about the HIV thing if you both are negative. You really can relax about that. Any time you have an infection, you can get swollen glands. I don't know about the bacteria for folliculitis entering your bloodstream during unprotected sex, but you could have gotten the bacteria on your skin at that time, if she had it too. So far, it sounds like YOU are the one with the infection, not her. I'm doubting seriously that it has anything at all to do with sex.

I am not sure if this was from a bug bite, a rash, or a skin infection. About 5 days ago two spots on my right leg started itching a lot, and from the picture links below you can see they have gotten real big. I thought it might be a bite from some type of bug at first, but now I just don't know because of the size they have grown to.

OK I HAVE HAD PERIODIC itchING OF MY BUTTOX IN THE LAST TWO WEEKS. I CHECKED IT OUT AND notHING REALLY SEEMS TO CATCH MY EYE. THEN ABOUT A WEEK AGO I DISCOVERED RED PIMPLE LOOKING BUMPS ON MY INNER THIGHS, BOTH SIDES (GROIN AREA). THEY MAY HAVE BEEN THERE FOR A WHILE WITHOUT ME notICING. THE itchING CAN BE INTENSE AT TIMES BUT FOR THE MOST PART IT doesN'T BOTHER ME. I HAVE TRIED POWDER, CREAM TO TRY TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM FOR THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS BUT notHING HAS REALLY CHANGED.

A year ago I was 40 pounds lighter, very active - had two things happen. 1: think Early Preg loss. June I tore a ligament in ankle. Stille forced 2 be actv on it, & didn't stop until I developed knee trouble and this pocket of fluid well above the site of injury on my lower calf - started developing shocks in my shoulders, then debilitating pain in my left shoulder and upper back. Subsided on own. Depression set in = zolft, but didn't help.

In some of the rashes, it appears the skin at the centre of the rash has dried and died out. I thought it might be contact dermatitis, but its not itchy. And when i searched up other possible causes like rubella - i didn't have any of the symptoms. In fact i have no other symptoms except small rashes as i've described. I've had no headaches, no fever, no runny nose, no sore throat, no cough, no red eyes.

on friday i had these little red bumps all over my thighs and chest and they itched and i took some benidryl and in a couple of days they got better but on sun the skin underneath my knees and the skin by my elbow started to get a rash it looks like hives surrounded in red skin and it itches so bad i've taken benidryl but it won't stop itching and won't go away....the weekend was a lot hotter than normal so i thought maybe it was a heat rash but wouldn't that have gone away by now??

By far the most common STD that causes a genital sore is herpes, but initial herpes doesn't commonly occur on the scrotum, and your later skin rash doesn't even hint at that diagnosis. Chancroid is current absent in the United States, and your symptoms don't suggest it. My advice is that you continue to work with your dermatologist about the diagnosis; his opinion is going to be much more reliable than anything I or any distant online expert can come up with.

I noticted these bumps/pimples/rash on my buttocks. It kind of looks like a bunch of pimples in one spot but like I said I don't know. They itch and hurt. I can't really sit down because they hurt. I spoke to my Mother about this and she says it could be from the Heat. Any of u ever had this?

It looks very similar to a rash I have been getting since I was a kid. I think it started when I was 12 or 13 and I've had it off and on since then (about 20 years). I has gotten better with age. I used to get a ton of red bumps on my fingers (mostly on the knuckles), elbows, toes and rarely a few on my knees. There were times I would have over a hundred on my hands. They were usually not painful unless I bumped them. The ones close to the fingernail or tips of fingers were the worst.

You can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin. You can take some OTC oral antihistamine medications like Benadryl or Claritin and see if it helps. For mild-moderate symptoms a weak steroid may be used (e.g. hydrocortisone as dermacort), whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid (e.g. clobetasol propionate, fluocinonide). If still the symptoms do not improve then pls get a clinical examination done by a dermatologist. Hope it helps.

Flash forward to last Thursday, I had a fungal/bacterial infection or irritation between my thigh and scrotum that I noticed was creeping up on my scrotum on the left side as folliculitis. I also noticed I had some red looking skin, it wasn't broken skin, just red, around my head and down my shaft a bit. Doc looked at it and said fungal infection, but I doubt his diagnosis. Granted my recurrences were 8 mos apart, but I also felt some pretty bad bladder pressure, urethra pain, etc.

I had the same symptom when 2 years ago i went to a dentist for a root canal and some of the stuff he was putting to numb my teeth also went in the back of my throat. Going ahead 3 months now. If I don't think about the throat problem it seems to never be there. But then when I look in the mirror in the back of my throat I see the skin is a bit swollen. No not the tonsils. The esophagus area.

Within days I had oral thrush, and the sore itchyness in groin was back 10x worse with red rash and red raised spots. Looks like jock itch. Now you have no idea how frustrated I am. I feel like if I had more energy (to even get out of bed most days) I would sue Accutane to have some money to figure out what is wrong with me! I'm very angry that my doctor got me on it, and that my parents didn't say no.
