I have a red rash that appears on my arms,
chest, and back from time to time and it
only itches onmy arms really bad. What
could this be? Can anyone help!!

are you taking any new medications? If
so does any of your old or new
medications. Say anything about being out
in the sun while on the medications.? How
about like the questions most will ask
.... Are you using any new soap, perfume,
or did you buy a new top such as a sweater
or something.
Just some thoughts.

Imshirt I
have not done anything different? I don't
have any clue to why the itching
continues, but I could scratch it until it
bleeds to relieve the itching

that is really strange hey? How about
allergies (out door, seasonal kind)? Have
to tried a benadryl (sp?) cream or pill to
at least stop the itching?

That has happened to me a few times. The
first time I went to the dr and they had
trouble figuring out what it was. Come
to find out it was hives. I didn't go in
for testing to find out why I was breaking
out, but I later realized it was from
stress, and now whenever I get stressed I
break out in a rash, it's usually in my
most sensative areas, like my knucles and
joints and stuff. My hands usually break
out real bad. I was prescribed zyrtec,
used oatmeal cream for the itch, went away
when I was done stressing.
