I have had this gross bumpy red rash all over my body since last Wednesday and I initially thought it was an allergic reaction to my fake tan. It was on the sides of my stomach, my chest, my back, mainly inner arms and on thighs and feet. It was really tingly and itchy and driving me mad. [img]smileys/smilies_11.gif[/img]
I have used the fake tan once before, and got tingly itchy all over, but no rash. I assumed that was from my fabric conditioner, so changed the brand.
I used the fake tan again last Tuesday and got the rash a day later. It STILL hasn't gone away.
I got a cold the day after the rash, not a full-blown cold but a bit of a runny nose and tickly chest. The cold has gone, and the rash is now ONLY visible on my inner elbow and behind my knees. Its still very itchy every where else at night time.. CAN ANYONE SHED SOME LIGHT AS TO WHAT MAY BE THE CAUSE???? I have had measles - not sure if it was German or normal - it was the one where you aren't very sick, you just have the rash.
I have bought some allergy tablets (with Loratidine in them) but they didn't work, and I bought some Calamine lotion for the rash, but it only provided temporary relief. I don't wanna try and get a Docs Appointment as it may take 3 days or more to see him, and it might be gone by then!
Any suggestions will really be appreciated!
Thanks,
