Can someone tell me what kind of skin rash this is?

I have an itchy, red rash on my inner arms, mostly from the elbows to the wrists. I first noticed it two weeks ago, and it seems to come and go… I have lots of small, red bumps that are definitely raised from the skin, and very itchy. I’ve had heat rashes before, and this isn’t one… the only new product I’ve used is a shampoo, and my scalp, shoulders, neck and back are not affected at all. It seems to be contained solely to my inner arms. The itching is worst first thing in the morning. I live in NH, haven’t been outdoors much in the past few months, and I know that these aren’t flea bites…. so does anyone have a clue what it might be??

Could be dry skin. Try using lotion on them, at night put on lotion and cover your arms with gloves so they can soak up the moisture. I had a rash on the back of my hand that started out as dry skin and my itching it made it worse. As soon as I became aware that I was itching the rash went away

Without examining you know one here would have a clue what is going on. See your doc and get this checked out.

Any way you might have been exposed to scabies? You should go to a dr and let them have a look.

Check your diet!!! It sound like an allergy. Your body is telling you something. Now its your job to find out what. It could be meat, dairy, sugar, alcohol. Do a Vega testing at a Natural path. Or do a cleans. But whatever you do, don’t go and take some kind of drug. Your body is reacting to something. Happy investigating!

I’m a nurse and it’s hard to detect without viewing it for myself. You have to see a doctor for some medication so it won’t spread. I would try some OTC hydro cortisone cream on it (use as directed). I would try this first and if it continues and gets worse, see a doctor.

I would try neem oil. it is good for most skin problems.
