Feeling Itchy

[michelle]

Recently, I have started feeling very itchy on my arms, legs and back over the last few days and have developed tiny mosquito bite-like marks. Why is it so and what can I do?

Chicken Pox??

We need some more information, like; Has your diet changed?, Have you gone anywhere in last week?, or has someone visited you from a foreign country?, Contact with animals?, Are you using a different brand of laundry detergent? Shower Gel? etc.

I'd see your doctor... Just to be safe.

Sorry Nona,

She doesn't have dry skin, she has "tiny mosquito bite-like marks..."

However, she only gave us a little bit of information on her condition. Having said that, the Bella Bodies body scrub is a good option barring that she doesn't have a medical skin condition.

It may be a reaction to some sort of an insect bite. A group of insects called mites might have caused this problem. These are extremely tiny creatures that you cannot see with the naked eye. So, they are found in practically all dusty and dirty areas. At home, they could be snuggled up in your carpets, bedsheets or your garden. They also reside in public places, including buses and taxis. Use a cream called Crotorax twice a day every day for about a week. In case there is no response, then do visit a dermatologist.

If it's hot (which I'm guessing it is considering it's summer) then it might be from sweating.

I have it on my arms, legs and back they're just sweat rashes.
Get something from a chemist for it or ask someone about it incase it isn't a sweat rash.

Thanks everyone I guess I will try some cream first and then see a dermatologist if that doesnt help.

And yeah vogueboy, my avatar is hot

It could also be Scabies (from a kind of mite). I had that when I was seven or eight... let me tell you, it is NOT fun.

It would be safest to go to a doctor asap, as if it is Scabies or some other mite/insect, you can spread them to anyone you come in physical contact with.

Am 100% sure you're reacting to something which you cant place. All the same see a doctor who would prescribe anti-itchy drugs. Your environment too counts; its all about being clean inside out.
