What could this rash be? Pic included.

This started off as a small circular patch of raised bumps. It looked like a heaf test. It's now spread across my forearm.

It's a little bit itchy. I can't find anything similar on google and I'm a bit stumped. I've tried moisturiser and hydrocortisone which hadn't made any difference.

I now have a patch of skin on the other forearm exactly the same.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Don't know but marking place as I get exactly the same thing. Small circle of dry raised bumps which then sometimes gets bigger (the skin in the middle of the circle stays normal).

It's strange isn't it minipie? I don't have a normal patch of skin in the middle, the whole area is just bumps.

Uticaria? (sun hives) - I get them sometimes - raised bumps which sometimes are fluid filled and a bit itchy. Get worse in heat/sun and calm down at night/when cool.

Hmm maybe different then. keely mine's the opposite - I get it mainly in winter and when the central heating's on.

No fluid in the bumps, no change day or night, sun or not.
