Question 2

Hives: These sound like hives_an allergic reaction to something internal or external to your body. Insect bites are a possibility also. If these persist an allergist can be consulted for diagnosis and treatment.

Question 4

itchy bumps won't go away  on my face, if i  scratch my skin raises and gets so dry and a dark red color. what is it?

Many answers: Your rash needs to be examined by a doctor who may refer you to a dermatologist. If you blush easily, these bumps may be from rosacea.

Question 5

when i scratch or bump my skin, on any part of my body, a raised hot white itchy rash develops. what could cause this?

Accepted Answer

Hypersensitive skin: This could represent dermographism, where you can cause welts on your skin with pressure, like writing. Physical urticaria, or hives, also possible. I usually have someone try an oral anti-histamine for this problem.

Question 6

hi there, my face,thighs,chest feel very itchy.when i scratch pink itchy bumps appear.they seem to be spreading all 
over my body also.what can it be?

Accepted Answer

Dermatographism: This is a heightened sensitivity of your skin and an allergic type reaction to something internal or external. Stimuli could be foods, medications, temperature, etc. Often the inciting cause is unknown. If you cannot get relief with antihistamines like benadryl(causes drowsiness) or claritin(nondrowsy), consult an allergist who may prescribe atarax (hydroxyzine) as well as attempt to determine the cause

Itchy bumps : Itchy bumps on the wrist can be due to several things including eczema, scabies, and lichen planus. The shape and distribution of the bumps, as well as your history can help a doctor make the diagnosis.

A few possibilities: Genital skin rashes like this are pretty common. Mostly not serious. Some common ones are lichen planus, lichen sclerosis, psoriasis, eczema, and others. You'll need to see a doctor in person for accurate diagnosis and treatment. In the meantime, it's not likely to be serious. Good luck!
