Body Rash

[jennyjoan]

As you know I had a crash about two weeks ago and I was ok - but then a few days later like an itch developed on my legs - inside thighs at the moment.

I find if I scratch anywhere like rear end then it gets then a rash appears. Only this happened before receiving the virus vaccination I would have connected it to the virus but it definitely happened before the vac.

Would it be a nervous thing I have got from the accident?

Might be a bit of eczema, JJ. That cam come on through stress/ anxiety.
Could be just a 'nervous itch'

[Mamyalynne]

I suppose it could be shock/stress related, not sure - use a gentle unscented moisturiser or an anti itch cream to prevent you scratching it.

Most likely bought on by the crash, jj. A nerve related thing for a guess. I'm sure that sqad will give you a medical reason sometime tomorrow when he see's your thread, jj.

Probably. You haven't taken any different medication, because of it?

[Sqad]

A range is a rash is a rash.
Could you describe it?
Flat, raised, solitary, red,itchy,spots?
Or perhaps a photo?

[jennyjoan]

can't do photos Sqad - especially inside thighs LOL but just looking at the tops of legs - like a red rash sort looking like bites but I know they aren't bites because I've had loads of bites before. I'll just stop scratching. Right now I can feel the itch at a variety of spaces - sides of thighs, down the legs and around ankles.

anyway can't really do photos Sqad as I'm not technie. don't have that gadget/phone to do them.

Are they raised??

[jennyjoan]

yes the little spots would be raised

I suspect sqad forgot to leave a 'wink' when he asked for a photo.
;)

pasta...cheeky woman...thanks foryour Valentine's Card -;)

Jj a best guess with the minimal of description given is that it is a fungal infection, particularly in overweight sweaty folks (no idea if it applies to you)
Nip to the chemist for Canestan cream and apply twice daily.

Do your thighs rub together when you walk? Do you sweat in that area?
Are you wearing different trousers with scratchy seams?

[jennyjoan]

no Barry I know what you mean - no this rash is on top of thighs, on lower back,

when someone mentioned the trousers - funny enough (I never do) but have washed my "blacks" and put in Lenor for a change - will stop that and see how I do. Thanks all for replies.

[jennyjoan]

Well have been scratching surreptitiously cos didn't want any body to know but do need some cream tomorrow. cos i have scratched down shins and they have started to bleed.

I'll have a ramble round to see there is some moisuriser knocking about.
