Hi I'm Jackie I'm detoxing from alcohol, I'm on day 12,I have developed red itchy stops on one of my arms it's driving me crazy! Is this due to toxins from alcohol?

oh you brave woman! Yes I think all sorts of weird things can happen as part of detox so drink plenty water to help flush the toxins out of your system. You may be able to get 1% hydrocortisone from a pharmacy to treat the skin symptoms in the meantime, it's available from Boots as Dermacare x
