itchy bumps on the both achilles' tendons, flesh colored, bleed when scratched. not spreading, but not going away. live in cold chicago.

Question 5

i keep getting rashes everytime i go to the country (my whole family does)! this itchy rash also prevents me from sleep at night! what to do?

Accepted Answer

See dermatologist: If this happens when you are in the countryside , you are likely allergic to something outdoors or even to the sun. 
I would suggest that you consult a dermatologist to find out the cause. Certainly poison oak/poison ivy is a factor to be considered especially since its resin on contaminated articles may remain potent for months.

how did i suddenly get an itchy rash?  are all sudden itchy rashes allergic in nature?

Accepted Answer

Rashes: Most allergic rashes are itchy however, not all itchy rashes are allergic. A good example is scabies that is cause by an arthroppod (insect) that tunnels beneath the skin. Ask your primary care provider to evaluate the rash first, seek a dermatologists opinion if the pcp can not determine the cause.
