Rash that is extremely itchy. it has spread to almost everywhere on my body except neck, face and upper back. cortisone antihistamine not working?

Sounds like: a serious problem that could come from infection, allergy, or collagen vascular disease, although external exposure causes is most likely for an itchy rash. If topical steroids and oral antihistamines are not working, it is time to see a doctor for accurate diagnosis and proper treatment.
