Hi. Earlier I noticed that on my arms
(the backsides of them) there were two
rashes developing that looking almost like
tiny tiny freckles. The same thing was
happening on my lower inner and top of
thighs. There are a few tiny little bumps
mixed in but the thing doesnt really itch.
Well, I went to go take my shoes and
socks off and put my shorts on and all of
a sudden my foot itched! There is a rash
that is bigger red bumps...Similar to
hives I guess on my left foot and it only
goes from the heal, to the inside, to the
bottom, aound to the outside. Not on top.
There are only two of these bumps on the
right foot. There are quite a few of
these bumps on my legs too. My back is
also itching, but not bad. I have not
switched laundry detergents or anything,
nor ate anything new latley. What could
this be. This rash or whatever is
annoying. I appreciate any help!

Hi there! Are you stressed out or
nervous about something? Do you have
allergy's, could it be the measles or
poison oak(poison oak can be airborne), do
you have inflammation and are scratching
it, be careful if you are scratching it
because it can become infected, making it
worse. I am not a Dr., but my suggestion
is to get in and see a Dr.(if in doubt,
get it checked out).
Keep us posted on what you find out.
Sincerely,
sandy

Hey. Thanks for your reply. I am a
little on the high strung side so to
speak. I am in college and I pulled an
all nighter for my last final this
morning, but I have done that plenty
before. I have not laid my head down
since saturday night! But, I am done with
school for now so I am releived...Summer
schoool does start on the 23rd though. I
have only had a sobe to drink today (it is
an energy drink) and I dont know if that
has something to do with it. I do have
allergies. I take claritin, flonase, and
patonol for eye allergies. I havent been
around any poision oak and my shoes have
not been off. In fact, I was in the
library all night, then I took my final, I
came home, took a shower, there was still
no problem. I actaully noticed it after I
came back from the doctor for somehting
else. (possible diabetes :( ) the actual
bumps got bigger and white, now they are
red. The ones on my foot are really the
worse ones. I will bring it to the
doctors attention on wednesday morning
when I go back. I will let you know!
Thanks!
Oh yeah, and

My hives solution is below the dotted
line. Though I am not sure you have it
for sure from your description. You
should definitely try and remember what
clothes you wore the day you had these
rashes and avoid wearing it again.
-----------
do the following.... No medicine needed.
The cause is "detergent residue" and most
people in their life time are not commited
enough to solve it. Follow these
techniques, it has not failed once.
1.) get rid of all your clothes. Throw
them away or put them in a plastic bag air
tight. You'll likely never wear them
again.
2.) buy all new clothes. Preferably
loose instead of tight. If you are
budget strapped, buy just enough full sets
of clothes for a 2 week rotation only.
3.) buy a new bath towel. Only use this
one.
4.) get rid of your bed sheets and
blankets. Buy new ones.
5.) before you do laundry, pre rinse 1
cycle with just water.
6.) when you do laundry, don't use any
detergent. Use baking soda only. The
hard part is making sure the people who
share machine with you don't use detergent
either!!!!
7.) now wash everything you bought a
couple times with baking soda only.
Towel, bed sheets, clothes.
8.) only wear your newly purchased
clothes, all cotton. No polyester.
9.) only sleep on the bed with the new bed
sheets.
10.) exercise daily enough to sweat the
existing residue off. If you can't
workout and sweat, take a detox bath.
Make sure the bath tub is detergent free.
No trace of any chemicals etc.
11.) wipe any furniture/couch/chair you
might have very clean. Detergent
residues are practically invisible.
12.) I have not met one person who was not
cleared of this problem after 4-6 weeks.
4 weeks if you are committed!!!!
