Creeping rashes

I was just wondering if others have rashes that seem to spread out. The two large rings under my arms are now running up the insides of my arms, and I have noticed I now have a rash under both breasts, the rashes spreading out and upwards. I don't have an appointment with Rheum for another few months though think I will ring and ask to be pushed up if any cancellations. Anyone else with this problem?

Not this problem, but if it's a long wait for your rheumy, I'd check with my GP in case it isn't related x

Take some pictures of your rashes for rheumy to document it. My rashes once started and not treated, spread outwards on arms, neck, back. ML
