Itchy rash all over

Hi. I've had an extremely itchy sore rash all over my stomach, bum, thighs, arms, ribs and wrists for the last month or so. I try not to itch but it gets overwhelming and I have sores and the rash is just spreading. I havent changed any wash powder or soap etc..I am incredibly stressed at the minute (losing hair too). .what do you recomend to stop the itch or relieve it a bit?

It's hard to tell without a bit more information.

You've had it for ages though. I would definitely phone your GP on Monday. Hope you feel better soon.

Have you tried antihistamines?

Defo phone the doctor.

My hair was falling out as it was so dry the layer holding the hair follicle was flaking away. Half of it is gone now. I wish I had gone to the gp sooner because all it took was a special shampoo and a scalp ointment called cocois. Could have saved lots of my hair!

Could you have eaten something or been around something that you could have reacted to, since it’s not washing powder?

Sorry to mention it, but could it be scabies. See link below.
