Why does my skin get red and itchy after shower?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Eczema: Long hot showers with deodrant/antibacterial soaps(or by themselves) will dry the skin, causing an increase in red/itching/ if appears as hives, then is the heat/pressure of water, not dry skin-should see a dermatologist to evaluate if hives.
