37 year old male with a strange rash i hope someone can clue me in on..
I get warm red spots that itch a lot. often long stripes.. they can come everywhere, arms, legs, body, neck. if i dont irritate them too much they go away after an hour or so and reappear somewhere else later a bit later.
- It seems to start in January and continue into may or so the last 3 years (rules out food allergies, clothing etc)
- I had them while in south east asia (rules out cold weather and most seasonal stuff as its different there)
- They are there both day and night.
Zyrtec seems to help, but I need to talk 3-4 24 hr zyrtec daily.
I saw a dermatologist who said it was stress related - but i dont believe it is for several reasons :
- Why would I only be stressed in those months?
and most important of all - it seems that my girlfriend has them now too as well as my daughter, so seems like it can spread?
any idea what this can be? been searching like crazy and doctors have been no help!
