Itchy red bumps - what could it be?!


Question: I've had itchy red bumps on my arms and shoulders for the last week or so and now also on my back and thighs. I haven't eaten anything odd or changed my usual skin care regime so I'm baffled. We don't have any pets either so I don't see how it could be flea bites! Any clues? I'll go to the doctor next week if it hasn't cleared up.

Did you start using a new type of laundry detergent? That happened to me once and I had an allergic reaction. Skin rashes can be brought out from stress and anxiety, so if you're stressed perhaps that's your body's physical reaction to it. I'd try keeping the area moisturized and if it doesn't start to clear up, schedule a visit to the doctor.

Why wait till next week??? Go now

have you any plants in the house, could be bites from insects and you can get fleas from other peoples pets. I would go to the doctor at any rate.

dry skin... maybe bed bugs.
