I have a very strange rash/red bumps on my body, could it be flea bites, heat rash, eczema?

I have red bumps in big patches all over my body. They itch really bad, and you can't really see most of them until I itch them, I have them all up my arms on my elbows (those ones look different, dryish) some on my lower stomach, and legs. I lotion ALOT. I thought it could be flea bites maybe? We just put new carpet in our place, cleaned all our sheets -bedding washed both cats and got flea collars and I still have it. It got alittle better and then just came back again. Does anyone know what it could be? Also, maybe somethin from the lake maybe because Ive been going there lately. I appreciate any help!

pretty sure its swimmers itch ive been researchin online and it makes the most sense specially how its come and go when ive been to this one lake. i dont have inscurance so i dont really have the money to be visitin a bunch of doctors unless it doesnt go away, thanx for all ur help1

obviously, without seeing them Nobody can correctly diagnose you. You may be having an allergic reaction to something.

Flea bites usually run in a line not spread all over.

Why not make an appointment for a dermatologist or your regular doctor. It could be something simple that is easy to get rid off. Unless you like to scratch all the time.

Have you ever had chicken pox. Go see a skin doctor or your family doctor for a professional opinion.

Have you considered going to the doctor???? DUH!

hives... read up on it

i agree its hives, especially because it did get better when you washed the sheets.


could be poision ivy, too and the fact that you don't know makes it worse. go to the doc.

If its extremely dry, red, and itchy as hell it might be eczema. Or if you were at the lake then it might be poision ivy. Go to a doctor it sounds serious

There could be a whole host of things going on with your skin. Do yourself a favor and make an appointment to see your family doctor. He or she may refer you to see a dermotologist, which is a skin doctor. It could be fleas, mosquito bites or mostly anything.

Put your mind at ease and go get checked out!

Good luck to you and I hope you feel better soon!

It sounds alot like scabies. They really make you itch and are highly contagious so go see a dermatologist. Look up scabies on a google search and it will tell you what to do. Don't wait, because they multiply and from what I've read they can cause other complications also.
Good Luck
