1847172 tn?1319047269 About a week ago (last wed.) I started to see 4 red patches on my abdomen. Within 1a couple of days smaller red spots followed around that aread. During the last weekend my back torso and arms became covered with small red spots, like little bumps. Almost all of them are small with some occasional bigger patches. I took a snapshot if that can help. In addition: * it never really itched, only now it started a little but it's very mild. Almost nothing.
Avatar f tn I have had itchy, dry patches all over my upper chest, neck, and upper back, with a few extending to my underarms, lower back, and lower abdomen for over a month, almost a month and a half now. They were very red when they started, a few of them tan-ish, and not near as itchy as they are now. Now they are smaller patches, pinkish, and very itchy. They change a little very day. I have tried antihistamines and cortisone ointment, but that didn't help at all, so it isn't an allergy.
Avatar f tn Try using bio oil and coco butter my skins the samei have dry patches that are itchy especially my face -.
Avatar f tn On my arms and legs sometimes I have patches of dry skin, sometimes they get inflamed and become very itchy and red, nothing seems to work. The ones on my arm leave my skin white where the patch was. Awhile ago I've been noticing that the patches have been starting to form around my cheeks and my chin. I've visited many doctors for my skin, and they've all been left puzzled. They have diagnosed me with enzyme and I have been prescribed many creams and pills..

Avatar f tn Since about Monday my skin has been acting very weird. It started out taht my face would turn very red, and it would not itch but it would be very warm. The day after that, mainly on my forearms, raised red patches of skin appeared. They are not itchy either and they don't cause me any kind of discomfort, theyre just there. The same goes for my upper arms and back. I had eczema when I was younger, so I tried using an eczema lotion but that does not seem to help.

Avatar f tn It presents as itchy and swollen red bumps or patches all over the body or can be restricted to some parts.This kind of skin inflammation with swollen red itchy patches all over the body is the most common form of allergy rash. Treatment is with anti-histamines to combat the main cause of the rash- histamine - released in the body during the reaction.They are Cetrizine/Loratidine etc. Also you can apply Calamine lotion on the itchy area to relieve the symptoms. ref:http://www.
Avatar m tn Other possible causes include vitiligo which involves loss of pigmentation of the skin. Vitiligo appears as stark white patches of skin that are non scaly and non itchy.
Avatar m tn Hello, Eczema is characterised by red, dry patches which are itchy. If the rash is non itchy then it can be pityriasis alba. Pityriasis alba is a common skin condition mostly occurring in children and usually seen as dry, fine-scaled, pale patches on the face. No treatment is required and the patches in time will settle in due course of time. The redness, scale and itch if present may be managed with simple emollients and sometimes hydrocortisone, a weak steroid, is also used.

Avatar f tn Psoriasis is a long-term (chronic) skin problem that causes skin cells to grow too quickly, resulting in thick, white, silvery, or red patches of skin.It is thought that psoriasis occurs when the immune system overreacts, causing inflammation and flaking of skin. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
