Skin allergy to sweat
by Kizzer, May 10, 2008 02:07PM
I have lived allergy free up until 5 years ago when I had a severe deadly reaction to Peptobismol. I broke out in hives and had anaphalaxia then found out I was allergic to Salycilates and Asprin. About 2 years later I developed and allergy that normally comes around when I sweat. I break out in hives and my body tempurature spikes. I've been put on a medication that keeps this from happening but I wanted to know if anyone knew anything about this, if there was a connection to my allergies to those medicines or even if it had a cure. Thanks.

You should try to avoid sweating and sun exposure. Use a medicated sun screen when you go out.
Apply calamine lotion at the site and take some oral antihistamine medications for your complaints.
You should also try to avoid all substances that you have documented allergies to.
Consult your doctor for a proper clinical examination.
Let us know if you need any other information and post us about how you are doing.
