Skin Conditions - January 2007

It's a red, blotchy itchy rash all over my body. I think it's an allergic reaction to something, but I'm not sure what. Also, my hands are swollen. Well, they go from swollen to normal and back to swollen. I don't have insurance, and I can't afford to go to the doctor. I have tried baking soda baths and lotion, both of which helped for a little bit, but not for long. What else can I do? Please help me!

Apologies if this question appears twice, but it didn't appear last time I asked it:
Does anyone know of a cure for red skin on the face - I suffer with spots and very sensitive skin, even at the age of 35! Spots are bad around my time of month, but some weeks my skin isn't bad expect for the skin around my nose which is permanently red. This isn't veins or anything, so I'm sure that there must be a cure out there. I would love to be able to have a day or two when I don't have to wear make up. Anyone any ideas - bearing in mind my skin is sensitive.

I live in Florida and it's really hot ALL the time. I sweat a lot in my armpits and I get pit marks which are repulsive. Is there any deoderant that works really well for you. Or are there any products that you can tuck in your shirt to block the sweat from seeping through?

Please no sarcastic comments, it's a touchy subject. Thanks to everyone for your help.

I have two scars from minor cuts on the inside of my arm. They got smaller and less prominent for a while after the wounds were healed, but this has stopped. Is there any way to make these two reddish lines disappear?

I am 14 and recently used some Oil cleanser to get rid of my teen spots but arfter using it for about a week now I seem to have flaky skin on my chin and sides of the nose. I drink about 1 to 1 1/2 litres of water per day so I don't it is caused by being dehydrated so does anyone have any idea what it could be caused by and how to get rid of it ?

acne scars- they aren't pitted or changed the skin in any way except for the fact that they are dark spots. will these fade with time, since theyre not pitted? id really like to go back to not wearing any foundation, and not being embarassed when my boyfriend sees me fresh out of the shwoer.

I'm allergic to nickel and recently my legs have started itching for days after shaving. Does anyone know where I can get nickel-free razors or do any of the leading brands not use nickel? Please don't post information about hair removal creams or waxing, I'm only interested in finding razors. Thanks
