Hi I have had lupus for a long time now and it does look very similar to the rash I get but it could also be a heat rash. Definately get it checked out. X

Do NOT use tanning beds. They are very dangerous. There have been health warnings regarding skin cancer.

It looks as if you have been burned. I recommend you urgently see your GP.

Be well!

It's on the top,of,my hand, knuckles, and also on my toes. It's been over 2 weeks. Still there, but not itching nearly as bad. Started as small blisters. It's still evident on my hands and toes. I should have my ana test results this evening. My mother has lupus as so did my grandfather. I already have hashimotos since I was 11 and now 33
