Rash

[GirlfromTennessee]

Has anyone developed any skin conditions? My eyebrow, forearm, hand & foot itch like crazy!! All is happening on left side of my body. They have tiny little fluid like bumps. If I put a cortisone type cream it helps but what could it be?!?!? All to be on my left side really puzzles me!!! I take Warfin, Plaqunil & Lipitor. Been on these meds for 1.5 year.

HI do take some photographs in case it suddenly disappears, and you are best taking it to your GP! I hope they get to the bottom of it. My daughter developed hives after an antibiotic reaction, they kept coming back for 18 months afterwards, but the itching was more wide spread than one side. MaryF

Shingles?

Umm.. I don't think it's shingles.

I used to get something that sounds potentially similar that was like hives. Generally I found that hydrocortisone did the trick, although you probably should use a lower dosage on your face, which I think is prescription only so seeing a doctor is probably a good idea. Scratching it, also, bad idea.

look up Petechiae-- i get this from my neck to my feet- when you get into a hot shower does it turn real red ??

No.... It seems tho when I have heat on the areas it starts to itch.

I'd hv gone for shingles too but they are generally quite painful..but given they are fluid filled vesicles types it might be worth avoiding steroid cream on it, as it might just delay the healing of the lesions. U could go for simple calamine lotion if its unmanageable.

Do u hv eczema??

I would see a GP and show them the lesion and get it swabbed.

how are u doing now? xx
