Slight Blochey Bumps

[spathiphyllum]

The ms has a cough like myself

She went to work came back with a kind of rash on her face, the bumps are very subtle but noticable and you can feel them. Hasn’t ised creams or an itchy scarff

Has the cough maybe some stress potentially bought this on or is this something we should look onto?

[spathiphyllum]

She’s been in an air conditioned room all day, also 1st day back to work after a week off, sorry just trying to up the info

[Eleena]

Hives? Do they itch spath?

[spathiphyllum]

They do not itch

[Eleena]

Hmmm, haven't a clue now.

[Eleena]

Have a look through these spath ..

Give some consideration to a psychosomatic reaction brought on by a low tolerance to the expression 'the ms'. :-)

[spathiphyllum]

Nah she loves it ;)

I’m worried it may be measles

[Sqad]

It's NOT measles.

Are they small blisters? Is it both sides of her face or just one side/
is there a stabbing pain associated with the rash?

[spathiphyllum]

No pain.. and yes, both sides of face, going from behind ears to cheeks to slight on neck.

Looks like heat rash sqad but is still there this morn no better

Can stress induce this type of thing?

[spathiphyllum]

Shall i try to upload a photo?

[Sqad]

O.Kspath....i was thinking of shingles.....but it isn't.

Yes, anxiety and stress can cause these types of rashes and i would guess that, that is were the problem and solution will be found.

[Sqad]

yes if you can.

It looks very mild here (just after warm shower)

Behind her ears looks the worst, and the most "blotchy"

Not sure what action to take.. i thought it would reduce over night but it's still there.

What would you advice Sqad? No temperature, no glands up and no itchiness.. Shall we leave it until it spreads or until any of those signs appear?

She has had singles before, but no other signs are there.

[Sqad]

Thanks spath.....nothing obvious springs to mind.
Give it over the weekend and if it hasn't settled by Monday, then see your GP.

[spathiphyllum]

MM.. will do, thank you Sqad

One thign to note is we both have a cold, i thought she may have coughed too hard or maybe she has a slight virus which is affecting her skin

Also she painted a room the other day, maybe a paint reaction? Or maybe a reaction to anti bacterial soap? I have no idea.. Will follow ur advice

[anneasquith]

Or....... You could ask the pharmacist ?

[spathiphyllum]

What's a pharmacist going to know?

[spathiphyllum]

As far as i'm aware you don't need any medical knowledge at all to work in a pharmacy.

[Patsy33]

Maybe a reaction to makeup or face creams e.g.? Has she tried antihistamines?..

[anneasquith]

So you don't think a pharmacist is qualified to give advice on medical conditions ? O K . !!!!!!!
