Thanks for the info. I will keep ya posted..
Hi,
How are you? This could be due to infection of the skin (dermatitis) or of the hair follicles in the skin (folliculitis) acquired from contact with contaminated water. Contaminated waters (with the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa) may present with itchy skin or itchy bumps on the skin, which progress to form tender red nodules that may contain pus. This generally resolves on its own within a few days, and medical treatment is rarely necessary. Disinfectants such as chlorine break down and lose their effectiveness faster in hot water. However, if it persists, have this checked by your doctor for proper evalaution. Try to avoid scratching also to prevent secondary bacterial infection. Topical anti-itch ointment may help provider relief. Take care and do keep us posted.
