Spreading rash, need help please

[IshipTomHardysohard]

Hiya any help and advice would be amazing right now.

Had a rash develop on my feet around 2 months, went to the nurse she gave me strong steroid cream and a moisturiser to use. Which did start to clear it up on my feet. She also took scrapings but didn't get enough to identify the rash.

Then is started to spread like wild fire, it's now all over my legs, arms, tummy, back, head. And now on my face and pubic area. I finished the cream and went to the doctor last week, she didn't know what it was and didn't want to give me any more cream until I had the rash scraped again. I had that done on Monday, the nurse gave me antihistamines to help with the itching, it's gets bad in the heat and night. I'm still using the eczema moisturiser that the original nurse gave me but it's not doing anything.

I've now got to wait till next Monday to get the results of the scrapping and then see what they can do, but it's driving me crazy and effecting me so much my skin looks awful.

Here is my feet and legs, please help

Just to add that as the rash consists of dry skin, red spots, welts and it has also stained my skin very, very red if that makes any sense

Ok this might be an obvious one but have you changed your washing powder/liquid ? Have you bought new furniture like a sofa or a bed that might contain materials you are allergic too? Any other life changes, pets, plants in the garden? you have probably been through all that all ready, so apologies.

My sympathies, it must be making you miserable.

Hiya no nothing has changed in that sort of way, I have moved house but haven't bought anything new for it. And I haven't really been in the garden. I pulled my bed apart thinking it could have been bed bugs, checked for fleas in the carpet that was left here. There's nothing all very great suggestions, thank you x

If you moved house, are there carpets that were there when you moved in? Sometimes chemical used to clean or fumigate carpets can cause reactions. Other than that, I'd ask to see a dermatologist, as you have been suffereing for a while now.

My sister had a peeling rash on her feet that looked exactly like yours. She found me that cutting out all plants from the deadly nightshade family helped enormously. IIRC that's tomatoes, peppers, aubergines and potatoes. Also paprika and chilli.

SirVix Thank you! Will Insist the doctor refers me on Monday.

GoodyGoody will cut all of them out of my diet this week, fantastic suggestion, thank you
