Rash on Neck, Breasts, Chest, Arms, Back

I had a little rash that started right in the middle of my neck, and then I found another small rash behind my right ear.
Soon, maybe a little less then a week, it moved from those areas to the other side of my neck, at my jawline, and behind my left ear. Then it moved down to the sides of my chest across the tops of my breasts, on the sides of my breasts, and under my breasts. Then recently in the last 48 hours, I found it on my back.


I just recently dyed my hair. Which I've done before and with the same brand dye. But the rash was present before this. I've been using hydrocortizone cream which seems to help, but I'm still worried.


Any ideas?

It could be eczema, sweat dermatitis, allergic reactions or eczema.

You need to wash the areas several times with fresh water. Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites.

Apply calamine lotion at the site of the lesions and see if it helps. You could take some oral antihistamine medications like cetrizine or loratadine. You need to maintain a good personal hygiene .

Anti-itch drugs, often antihistamine, may reduce the itch during a flare up of eczema, and the reduced scratching in turn reduces damage and irritation to the skin.

For mild-moderate eczema a weak steroid may be used (e.g. hydrocortisone or desonide), whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid (e.g. clobetasol propionate, fluocinonide).

Eczema can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin. Moisturizing is one of the most important self-care treatments for sufferers of eczema. Keeping the affected area moistened can promote skin healing and relief of symptoms.

Well I've looked up alot of stuff, still haven't seen a doctor.
But it seems to be going away just fine on it's own.

Anyway, all symptoms, site of rash, and look of it point me to Pityriasis Rosea (or something like that).

Will keep ya posted though.

I have been wearing Vidctoria secrets bra for as long as I remember, but bought a couple of new ones, and not I have broken out on my breasts, the itching is annoying and I haver gone to the doctor to see about it, but the cream that he prescribed is only helping out a little bit, what other suggestions may I ask for the itching and the marks left on my breasts  to help the healing process.
