RASH ON ARMS

I am four months out and I have a rash that started on both wrists, worked it's way halfway up my arms and is now past the inside of my elbow. Red bumpy rough itchy at times. Anyone experience any of this. I thought it might have been melatonin but I quit that about two weeks ago and it's still not all cleared up.

Have you changed your laundry detergent recently? Or tried a new perfume, lotion, dish soap...anything new? Have you been exposed to poison ivy/oak? And of course, this time of year presents lots of pollen, so that may be an issue, as well. Have you had a chance to ask your PCP? How are you with cortisone creams or calamine lotion? Those might help the itching (if it does itch), as will Benadryl. Allergies can develop at any time in a person's life, just as they can disappear, and no one seems to know why. I hope you find the culprit, AND a solution. Good luck!

I had the same thing and found out it was excema (sp?). I used a lotion that is recommended by dermatologists and it cleared it up. You can buy it at CVS or Walgreens. It is called CeraVe. It is pricey but worth it. I think this had something to do with the rapid weight loss and my thyroid.
