you have a case of HIVES. i had this some months back and was shocked. i went to see the doctor right away and was given some antihistamines.
he said it could have been triggered by several possibilities. a new clothing detergent, pollutants in your home, stress, an allergic reaction to certain foods, etc...
the medication my doctor gave was really good. i took it and right away, the redness and bumps went away in half hour. you should go see the doctor asap!!

scabies
Caused by the mite Sarcoptes scabiei, variety hominis, it produces intense, itchy skin rashes when the impregnated female tunnels into the stratum corneum of the skin and deposits eggs in the burrow. The larvae, which hatch in 3-10 days, move about on the skin, molt into a "nymphal" stage, and then mature into adult mites. The adult mites live 3-4 weeks in the host's skin.
The motion of the mite in and on the skin produces an intense itch which may resemble an allergic reaction in appearance. The presence of the eggs produces a massive allergic response which, in turn, produces more itching.
Scabies is transmitted readily, often throughout an entire household, by prolonged skin-to-skin contact with an infected person (e.g. bed partners), and thus is sometimes classed as a sexually transmitted disease. Spread by clothing, bedding or towels is a less significant risk, though possible.

We found out that my best friend is allergic to Clairol products. It is a new allergy, as she has used Clairol for years. She dyed her hair and got a really bad reaction: rash, painful itching, welts, scabs, you name it, all over her body! Not relating her symptoms to her hair color, she went to a dermatologist, and he said it was an infection called enfanteigo (?????) and used the treatment for 5 weeks with little change. She finally began to heal. About 7 1/2 weeks after the inital dye, she was finally healed, and we did her regrowth. Not 15 after we put the dye in her hair, she broke out again. Allergic reactions can develop at any time to products you've used your entire life. This may be what it is. We learned it was all clarol products after she finally healed the 2nd. time, and she was using her new Clairol body wash....ROUND 3, FIGHT!

don't scratch or it's going to leave you with ugly looking scars. My hubby had this condition since march 2006. He had been to the A & E at CGH, our family GP as well as National Skin centre, But none seems to help at all, the medications can only ease it a little.But chinese med seems to help him though. Try this, stop consumption of nuts, any kind of nuts, and fruits that have got those sticy subtance on it. seafood is a big no no now.

what have you recently ate??
sounds like maybe you are having an allergic reaction to something. call your doctor if it gets any worse. till then try to sit in a warm bath and maybe add some Epsom Salt if you have some. when you get out, put lotion on and then try to stop from itching even though it may be hard.

You really need to read "Rosacea Free Forever" by Laura Taylor (also available in electronic format here: http://www.rosaceafreeforever.info ). It's about how to permanently cure your Rosacea naturally. I cured my Rosacea permanently in only 4 days after reading this.
Stop paying paying each month good money on creams. This is exactly what the pharmaceutical industry wants you to do! They want to milk money from you each month.

You could have mites which can make you itch. You need to go to the doctor to get some cram to put on it if it is a ongoing problem.

Eczema patients can avoid scratchy fibers for softer ones like bamboo, cotton, or silk, which are gentler on the skin. Opting to buy organic fibers can also be a wise, healthy, and eco-friendly alternative. Learn here https://tr.im/NevGt

Sounds like poison ivy. Don't scratch it, no matter how much it itches. Seek medical attention.
