Avatar m tn Does Prickly Heat rash form whiteheads, I woke up this morning with a rash on my upper chest (above pecs) and upper back (triangle between neck and shoulder blades). The chest is just red bumps the back on the other hand is quite raised and has hundreds (not kidding) of whiteheads, it is not terribly itchy but I definitely can tell something is going on back there. I presume it is Prickly Heat as I moved to S.
Avatar n tn Hello, I appear to have a strange bump like rash in different places on my body, middle of chest, back of upper arms shoulders, lower back, various places on my upper legs, the bumps have no center they are not red or itchy and they vary in size They seem like they are more under my skin than on it , I have had them for 4 months and they dont seem to have multiplied or decreased, I first thought I might of had an allergic reaction to something I ate but now I am not sure.
Avatar f tn I have had a severe sinus infection for about 5 days, with the nausea, disorientation, fever, night sweats, headache..... but yesterday when I woke up, I had a rash across my upper arm, shoulder, upper back, quadriceps and thighs. It looks like a heat rash, but is persisting... Although I'm feeling a bit better, and my sinuses are almost cleared, I've developed a pain in my upper right teeth today as well... Is the rash possibly related to the sinus problem?

Avatar n tn Facial Rash... a fine rash - looks more like blushing -seems to be triggered by adrenaline. (stress, even small stress). Pink on sides of neck (mostly on left) just about all the time and itchy shoulder and back. I don't smoke and I was tested negative for chemicals. I do not have extra exposure to sun or heat.
Avatar f tn I know you can get heat rashes on your upper body and on your feet. But can you get them on your legs on areas such as inner thighs and shins? Everytime it's warm up or humid, I always get this rash looking thing on my legs. My legs start to break out so bad. And I have tried lotion, but it hurts or burns especially after i shave. And sometimes i would put lotion after i shave, and it hurts. But my question is why do i get strange rash looking things on my legs?
Avatar n tn Most often, heat rash goes away on its own. Severe forms of heat rash may need medical care, but the best way to relieve symptoms is to cool your skin and prevent sweating. Keep the affected area dry. Dusting powder may be used to increase comfort.
Avatar m tn In the next week or two it spreads to either my right collar bone, middle of my upper chest, or both. I assume its a heat rash based on my Google searching. This rash comes like once every 2 months It goes from barely not being noticeable to being wide spread and red. Only things ive done to try and get rid of it is use Cortisone cream (with Aloe) and wash the spots with Dove soap and let it air dry.
Avatar f tn Hi, Cholinergic urticaria is a subcategory of physical urticaria (aka hives) that is a skin rash brought on by a hypersensitive reaction to body heat. Symptoms follow any stimulus to sweat such as exercise , heat from the sun, saunas, hot showers , spicy foods which may cause an increase in body temperature or even stress due to blushing or anger. Some people only have symptoms during the winter months where their body temperature rises when it is unacclimatized to heat.
Avatar n tn During the winter (not every one but a number) I have experienced a sharp pin point extreme itch on the outside of my left upper arm. This is hard to ignore and upon vigorous scratching a very small sore appears. This occurs a number of times consequently leaving me with intense itching in several spots in this area. It seems to occur mostly at night waking me from sleep. This has been happening off and on for about 12 years.
Avatar f tn Stress can cause some issues with breakouts, but if they are itchy- I'd wonder if they are something other then pimples. It could be something like a heat rash, but it doesn't hurt to get a doctor to take a look at it.
Avatar m tn Recently, I went on a vacation and stayed at some hotels. I've used some of the travel size body washes that were in the hotel. On this same trip I had oral sex a few times that I gave and received. The person that I slept with wouldn't have knowingly gave me something intentionally. I never mentioned it because I don't want to make a big deal about something that can be as simple as a heat rash. I'm trying to go through my head what it could be.
Avatar n tn Its been a week since i started itchy on my upper back when my mom noticed there were thousands of small bumps. She said it was probably a heat rash or something. Over the next few days the itching became a constant thing and the bumps spread from my back to my legs, arms and now my face! It seems the more I scratch the more pronounced the bumps seem. I havent been camping or ate any food I'm allergic to(shellfish). If this sounds familiar please help!
Avatar n tn I have a constant rash on my upper arms that has been there for years. I was told previously that it was infected dermatitis but the cream i was prescribed didn't clear it. Fucibet and Fucidin. It is not itchy, but consists of tiny red or white bumps, the white ones have a white substance when squeezed. The sun seems to help clear it but it returns again. Could it be an allergy. I am asthmatic. I would appreciate any help you could give me. Thanks.
Avatar m tn Hello, first time poster here. So, I woke up this morning after sleeping on the floor (family over), and I was sweating. To think of it, I was sweating all night. I began to itch once I was awake and noticed a large hive/rash on both my inner thighs, inner arms, outer chest(near nipples), and on the inner elbow of one arm.I slept on my right side and on that side(chest/arm wise) the rash seems to be larger. Is this a heat rash? or some kind of allergic reaction?
Avatar m tn I have been feeling discomfort in the area around my upper inside thighs, groin and across to my belt line for about a week. It has a sensation of heat (almost like a slight burning) - (however when I visibly inspect the area there are no signs of any visible rashes or such). A while ago I had a yeast infection and the dr gave me some creme (on the penis). I checked for pubic lice and have no visible signs of any such materials (eggs, nits, droppings in underpants or lice themselves).
Avatar m tn I was told to wash with Hibilens daily and to take doyxcycline for one week as a precaution, but he didnt think it was bacterial, ruling out also an allergic reaction. Maybe heat rash or a folliculitis. I have now again experienced these bumps. This time on my biceps, a little on forearms, a few on the neck and 2 or 3 on my chest area. NONE on the legs or lower torso like last time. I have shaved my arms in that area previously, but not my chest or neck area. ANY idea what this might be?
Avatar m tn Since joining a new Gym I have aquired a small rash on the outside / back of my right upper arm (around the tricep area) I believe this to be from contact with the gym pad on the preacher curl support and can only assume it is some kind of viral / bacterial infection. (I now avoid this machine of use a towel). Small redened raised areas give way to slightly larger swellings that contain a clear fluid if broken. approx 5 at a time.
Avatar f tn I'm curious about it my upper back was hurting the other day but I thought nothing of it ! I hope you get a answer to this !
