Recently I've been swimming in swimming pools and starting feeling extraordinarily itchy several minutes after i start swimming. It's very bothersome to the point that I have to come out of the pool and when I come out, I start seeing isolated bumps forming on my skin (not really rashes or clusters of little bumps, mainly one or two big bumps like a mosquito bite). Soon after I leave the pool however, the itching stops and the next day I feel perfect. I'm wondering if this is a medical condition (I don't think it's swimmer's itch by the way because they last longer) or is it just the pool?

It's probably Maria she wants to pee in the pool. Sorry about the stupid answer but I just answered Maria on her peeing in the pool question. You could be allergic to a chemical that is being used.

It is a possibility that you may be allergic to the chlorine in pools. Im assuming that you dont get this rash when you shower, so you are probably allergic to one of the chemicals used in swimming pools.
I hope this helps.

The acid In the pool, to balance the Chlorine PH, Or you may be allergic. I think it is the pool maintenance, check with the owner, ask questions ,(he or they) may not know the water is too acid. They sure do not want to spoil your fun.

You may have allergic reaction to the chlorine or other chemicals in the pool. are your eyes red and itchy? Check with your doctor and he'll tell you what's wrong and what you should do...I've heard of things that can prevent chlorine reactions, but I can't put my fingers on it.

in case you're soft with donning a tampon then pass forward, yet earlier you pass swimming i might attempt a tampon to work out if it fits you! in case you have a easy bypass then your era might maximum in all danger end in water so which you possibly no longer even choose a tampon or pad in spite of everything. Btw how old are you? P.S. congrats on womanhood its a wild-holiday
