Fine, itchy bumps on my body?!


Question: Fine, itchy bumps on my body?
They're on my forearms, lower legs, and feet. I've been itching for a little over a month now. The same thing happened to my little brother and the doctor gave him antibiotics and told him to stop using his soap (he started using Dove), then it happened to my mom on her back but when she stopped using BBW products, it went away. The only scented stuff I have is from them, and that's seriously all I use(d) up until about a week or two ago. But I've been itching for AT LEAST a month now. I don't know what else it could be....What do you think? Should I go to the doctor?


Thanks for helping!

Answers:

I wouldn't necessarily say go to a doctor. It's not life threatening, so if you can find whatever you're sensitive to by yourself then all the better!
The same thing happened to me - only on my legs. It was in the summer and I put scented body butter on after shaving every day. I narrowed it down that the problem was most likely the body butter, so I bought Cetaphil (a non-scented moisturizer that is hypoallergenic and does not clog pores [non-comedogenic]; can be bought at Target, Walgreens, CVS, etc...).
So I suggest that you start using all hypoallergenic soaps and moisturizers until you figure out whatever you were sensitive to.



Hope this helps!

Yes you should go to a doctor, it might be a product that you used that makes you itch!
