Skin Pain After Moisture Contact Without Rash
Posted: 09-18-07 10:25am

I have strong skin pain with no outside cues, i.e. no rash. This pain only follows contact with any kind of moisture (sweat, taking bath/shower, lotion, muggy weather) and is not always the same in strength. It occurs mostly right after the moisture contact, sometimes already during the contact, i.e. under the shower. Cold water or ice improves the pain afterwards.

It feels like needles hitting the skin or 1000 ants crawling underneath. Nnormally it lasts about 45 minutes. Ii have read about aquagenic pruritus and histamine intolance. Could it be this? Ii need to find a cure since it restricts my living dramatically. I cannot take a bath or wash without pain, I cannot work out or do any kinds of sports since I then sweat and I cannot be outside the house during summer.

This problem has been going on for about 3 years, but on an occasional On-and-Off basis. Sometimes it´s there, sometimes not. Right now and for the last 6 weeks it has been very bad.

I am seeking immadiate help. Can anybody help me? I have seen a Dermatologist and a Family Doctor. Both unable to help me. I would lik eto see an Immunologist or Allergist, but they do recommend it´s something else and won´t give me an appointement after I talked to them on the phone. They don´t want my money obviously.

Does anybody have the same problem? Please help me. I am only 28 years old.

thanks for the hint, but i think it´s not it. i looked at it at wikipedia, and all the other symptoms are not mine at all.

but thanks
