I'm postinga very unflattering photos of a rashe i keep getting. Just wondered if anyone else got them. Its not food ( I kept a diary) and I did nothing different at the times they occur

They are raised and really itchy. Almost look like chicken pox. I get them every where....

Hi miss_boo, I'm sorry you are suffering with this, I have had a week with a horrid rash and it was urticaria caused by stress, if I were you I would bimble off to your GP and get him/her to have a look, as I of course am in no way qualified to diagnose things at all and there will be other causes so I would honestly get them checked.

My urticaria has eased with the help of antihistamines but some topical steroid was offered which u didn't want as the worst of my rash was in the neck and steroids thin the skin, which is delicate there anyway.

Sending positive healing, soothing and anti-itching vibes your way and hope very much you get to sort it out very very soon. :-)

see GP, i had something like this, scabies, so its possiby that

Hi Miss-Boo,

My granddaughter comes up in a rash very similar to that, with her it is heat. As foggy says better to see your Gp and have it looked at, at least they could give you something for the itch. An itch can be one of the most irritating things :)

Hope you get sorted soon.

Is it possible you sufferer with psysoris I was treated for chicken pox at 30 for 6 weeks by a GP till they realised it wasn't to you also get rash in your hair line ? I have a type called gutate there are different types of rashes in this condition it sounds to me if that is what it is the only thing that helped me in the end was salt baths none of the concoctions from GP but you get checked by them as it is a auto immune condition and might need to be kept an eye on as I know have UCTD as well as fibro ,I realised salt helped after I went in the sea whenever it flares up now I just chuck a load of salt in a deep bath and soak it's much nicer than coal tar, get yourself to the GP let them have a look first , take care xx

Hi I get these docs told me they hives caused by stress love xx

My doctor did mention hives but as usual he was unsure. I got the usual " if its still there I n a couple of weeks come beck" I go back and he gives me eurax. I've had about 15 times now. Much worse on my face. X

Aww love if it is hives they do reoccur feel for you as I hate them hugs xx

Hi miss_boo

I am so sorry to see that you are coming out in such an horrid rash like this, and I genuinely hope that it starts to clear soon for you. Rashes such as these can come out for many reasons that it is really difficult to speculate on what it could be?

I would advise however, that if it does not clear or it gets worse that you discuss the issue with your GP just to get other things rule out?

I want to wish you all the best of luck with finding the answers that you desire and deserve to this issue.

Al my hopes and dreams for you

Yes I get them too. My doctor said to wash with a white washcloth and use hospital soap and change out the washcloth every other day. It does help. Hope this helps sweetheart!!! xxx Mitzi
