A member asked:

I have a rash all over if you rub on it you can feel a bumps under the skin. it itches what can this be?

??Hives??: Sounds like hives with possibly some angioedema (swelling within the dermis). Also known as urticaria. Try a simple antihistamine to see if this helps, if not, you should have someone look at the rash since this isn't the place to diagnose a rash. Needs to be visualized.
