Mysterious Skin Disorder - Help Posted: 02-12-07 19:13pm
I don't know what it is... I've tried to
diagnose myself online numerous times
before but I can't find out what it is. I
occasionally get these red bumps all over
my body on a spontaneous basis. First, I
thought it was related to heat (because I
got em when I was feeling hot) so I
thought it was prickly heat. My
assumption was proven wrong because I
still had them over the winter. Now more
specifically speaking I think they're
related to rising body heat temperatures.
I get them when I feel anxious or when i'm
hyper. I don't really get em when I play
sports ( well at least not always). They
appear first on my forearm, then it
spreads all over including my chest,
stomach, upper arm, neck, torso, and the
inner leg area (excluding the genitals,
and the buttocks. I do get them on my
thighs right below the buttocks). I don't
get them on my face and my lower leg
areas. They aren't itchy, it comes like a
wave of needles prickling me. It's very
painful at times and it takes couple
minutes before they disappear completely
like they never happened. Usually, I just
splash some water all over my body and
take a breather when it happens. When I
calm down and don't move they go away
faster. They're definitely not
contagious... It's just some kind of skin
disorder... I don't know what causes it.
It might be bacteria or allergies.
Please post you have any ideas.
Thank you

Good post healthspecialist, i've read some
parts of your article (although i'm gonna
go back for more intensive reading). As
for my skin disorder, some of the symptoms
in your article fits, but there is an
issue. The fact that my rashes simply
disappears in a matter of minutes is very
puzzling. Most people don't even tend to
notice that i'm forming rashes. I on the
other hand know because I can feel the
electric - like pain and notice tiny red
rashes everywhere on my forearm... Then
it simply disappears... I need to target
in a bit more on the "skin-changes" issue.
I g2g buh i'll post back later.
