I have developed a rash on my shoulders, chest , and arms. They are little red dots and get all itchy, but I am not sure why this is happening. I started using a new detergent, but my legs are not itchy, neither is my stomach , and my chest hasn t been in contact really with the clean clothes (I have worn v- neck shirts the past two days, and still a rash forms on my chest and neck). I am allergic to peanuts but have not been in contact with them and my throat is not swelling . What does this sound like?
Hi, It seems that you are having either irritant or allergic contact dermatitis. Contact with irritant or allergen may be elaborated. It may be soaped, dust, color, house dust mite, pollen, perfume, deodorant, clothes material...take antihistamines till relief in itching. Take a short course of steroids in tampering dose. Apply mild steroid cream. Avoid soap, perfume and deodorants. Keep away from dust and fume. Avoid eggs, fish, cows milk, nuts,fermented food in diet. You may be benefitted. I hope you got my answer. Thanks.
