to Jd castle, I think you might have scabies mite. Get your self checked out.
For the past 2 weeks, at night I have developed mosquito like bumps and itching in different areas of my body. I can easily scratch my skin (leg, stomach, feet, back) and bumps will start forming in that area and else where. There is nothing new in my diet and I have never experienced any allergy symptoms. The only thing that is different, I am 3 months late on my menstrual cycle and tested not pregnant with a home testing. I'm thinking I may have the hives but am scared that it can be something else. Please help, I need to get some sleep.
i was bitten by alot of fleas, and it left my skin with lots of red bumps,and hard, and my skin color is real ugly now,and the little bums want go away,now it seems more redish little bumps are showing up on my body. the bumps on my ankles ,and legs are healing,and drying out,but ive notice bumps are comming up on my back and arms, and its really worring me. what could this be?
Your girlfriend should be examined as well, just to be sure she doesn't also have staph, although your condition doesn't sound as though it was caused by that bacteria (even though the culture showed it.) Your rash does not sound like an allergy. You should continue the Bactroban and Keflex for the duration your doctor recommended. You should also tell your doctor that your girlfriend is itchy too. There is at least a chance that both of you have scabies, which is caused by an itch mite and is catchy. It is also curable overnight. The possibility is worth checking out.
Take care.
