Come out in spots-what could this be?

[misoltoemummy]

Have come out in spots which are redish on the outside and scabby in the middle.
Sorry if too much information.

They are on the top and lower half of my back ,my arms ,some near my ankles and botom half of legs ,a couple on my staomach and on one of my boobs.

Not sure if it is an allergy as have none on my face and neck and wondered if it was a clothes washing detergent.
But these are spots rather than a rash.
It isvery itchy and have made them bleed where i keep itching them.

Anyone have any ideas what it could be?

Thanks belgo,that'one good thing.

Just rang and spoke to a pharmacist and he seems to think it is a post viral rash.
Especially if i have had a cold and been feeling run down.

Never had a rash like it before and seems rather servere but he suggested I take some anti histamines.

Has anyone else ever had this post viral rash?

my kids have had a post viral rash. You're getting it now most likely because you are run down, stressed and your body isn't fighting these bugs as well as it usually does.

Try to rest, but I know it's hard to get rid of stress.

Thanks belgo.

With MIL arriving tomorrow and the house looking a mess as the children were off today not much chance of a rest.
Have'nt even planned the menu for the next few days yet as MIL is quite fussy.
Will have to send DH out in the morning to do some shopping and get some wine in for her.A few glasses and she might not notice the mess!!!

Probably a combination as you say of feeling unwell and feeling anxious and low.

OOps-sorry was testing out another name and not wanting DH to see my post re MIL

If you had chickenpox you probably would have felt VERY unwell before the spots appeared!

Gonefishing-had a bad cold but did'nt feel really unwell.
