oooooh huni, is it sore......it looks as if it is.

i dont have facial rashes thankfully but i used to get similar whelts all over my body. joined with water filled and blood blisters. itched like made but hurt like hell

it turned out to be cealiacs disease ( also auto immune) which gave me dermatitis herpetiformis. I have been on specific meds now for around 6 years and as long as i take the meds my skin never flares now

good luck and a happy day to you too xxx

Hi

I only had it like that on my whole face. Looked like i had a chemical peel gone wrong. Lasted for quite a while, hospital didn't know what is was and no creams helped. It is not there now it went and only comes back slightly when i go near HOSPITAL THEATRE APPARENTLY ITS THE GASES AND CHEMICALS THAT START IT OFF but i dont know why? Hopefully it will subside and i have no scars either and my face had less wrinkles, thats one good thing.

Be patient and try and pin point when it started etc and what you were using or eating. Have you dyed your hair? anything you can think of may help. Take care and i hope it subsides soon.

Thinking of you x

thank goodness for this site!! back from the dermatologist and "No don't think it's sle related" well I'm telling him of this tag and showing him the picture.. thanks disco queen for posting the photo... the rash looks like what I had 2wks ago. Started on soles and palms and within 1/2hour spread spread up the body.. in rush to get medical help didn't think to take photos of bright red belly, arms and legs. It settled with 1M promethazine and hydrocortisone in the butt. All the best to everyone.

Yes I get this my main issue is face then from my feet to my bits lol, mine really swells is very hot and feels like my skin is ripping. When it starts to go down it looks like bruises. Unfortunately my legs are scared from it.

Can we get make up on prescription to cover the rash?
