could be an allergy, if you have been around any plants that could be the cause. also food allergies such as iodine, the cause for seafood allergy, can cause a rash. another cause could be a reaction to an infection. your body can break out in a bumpy rash when you are fighting an infection. tonsillitis, feverblisters and many other things can cause them. another cause could be a reaction to a chemical. whether medication, over exposure to household chemicals, or even a laundry detergent and things of that line. its impossible to tell without seeing them and running test. the best thing to do is take a benadryle and make an appointment to see your doctor right away. if any swelling occurs before your appointment go straight to the ER. it can be serious, i saw a girl go into anaphylactic shock, (when the throat swells shut), just because she used too much mosquito repellent...hope i could help, get well soon!

Sounds like hives. You can get them from anything. Your laundry detergent, stress, foods you eat, bedding, etc... You may want to back your diet down to white rice and water and see if they clear then slowly add foods that are normally in your diet until you find out what causes them. Also switch detergents to something such as All free and clear, eliminate all feather bedding and go to something hypoallergenic, and even buy new pillows since bedbugs can cause bumps like that too, and if thats the case then all I can suggest is treating your mattress with lice spray until you can get another. But with where they started its most likely contact related. Have fun figuring out what caused it!

It sounds like you have parasites plus a yeast infection. I had the same thing and I understand perfectlly. Many doctors cannot diagnose this as they are not trained to look for these sort of things. They treat the itch but not the root of the problem, and put you on anti-biotics which does not help. Please contact me if you like because this is serious and you need help as soon as you can, and I will introduce you to this Herbalist Dr.email me at newbegin@shaw.ca and give me your phone number and I will hook us up to talk to him. It is free to call.
