I originally had a patch of rash on my right leg but it seemed to start clearing then as it did i started getting it all over my right leg then my left leg then both my under arms then behind my knees, my ankles buttocks, chest, fronts on my arms and hands, i went to the doctor they originally gave me steroid and anti fungal cream that didnt really have any affect, then i went back and got anti fungal on its own and thst did nothing then i tried steroid cream on it's own still nothing I have in the last few days tried cream for scabies that didnt improve it and im still fetting more and im also on antibiotics and a stronger version of Fexofenadine and the Doctor's have no idea and im not booked in with a dermatologist until 1st October ...... HELP

hi, hoping you’re coping. i’ve been reading about an ingredient that’s been causing a lot of skin reactions in the last couple of years...

methylisothiazolinone (MI) and its relatives, such as methylchloroisothiazolinone (MCI)-

seems to be in a lot of products, shampoos, soaps, even laundry detergent..

i’m going to start washing w/o soaps and only use coconut oil for awhile as a test.

there’s a website for this chemical called MI free, where you can learn more. Good luck.
