Hi all, I come to you as a last resource
to figure out my skin issues. Starting
out about 2 years ago I noticed a red
blotchy area on my chest which did not
itch, slowly it seemed to move up my body
into my shoulders and neck and down my
arms but itching like crazy making it more
inflamed and more itchy. This was
something that would keep me up all night
some nights feeling exhausted in the
morning and still itchy. I have been to 2
family dr's who did not know so they sent
me to a dermatologist who in turn sent me
to a allergist which turned up no
allergies. The symptoms have been on and
off for the last year but have moved into
my face and leaves it red around my eyes
and seems to get really bad when I sweat.
I have also tried alternative medicines
and they did come up with that is could be
a emotional state thing controlling my
symptoms. It also itches in my limbs now
(behind my knees for example). Any help
would be sooooooooo much appreciated.
Thank-you. :(

Hi there, you could be suffering with
urticaria, although your allergist should
of told you this, so i'm not entirely
sure. Normaly itch skin conditions such
as urticaria react well to
antihistimines.
You can buy these over the counter at a
chemist and personaly I would reccomend
trying 'xyzal' which is levo-certizine
hydrochloric failing that you could try
clarytn.
