Started Getting Skin Rashes On Body Parts. Family History Of Eczema. Should I Be Worried?

Question: I have quit alcohol cold turky 45 days ago. On the second or first week I started to get a skin rash it was on my forehead in the beginning but not much just a little, then after a week it went to my chest and vanished within a week or so. Then it appeared on my liver side and disappeared in a week and now on the opposite side of the liver but and it still there. It might vanish soon. I'm just worried is this a normal process of the liver detoxifying ? Should i be worried. I don't have any other symptoms of liver disease. I eat healthy, drink lots of water, and take multi vitamins. I will also start taking milk thistle tomorrow (two pills a day 200mg each).

I forgot to mention that I have a 'forgot what it's called' but it's some kind of Eczema a genetic one from my mother side. I might get skin rash or skin irritation by just the change of the environment or other factors such us some kinds of food, or grass.

I didn't have this kind of Eczema when I was born but it appeared when I was 16 years old and it vanished when I went to the states at the age 19.

Is this normal, should I be worried or should I give it sometime for the body to fully detoxify. I also know that It's a bad idea to quit cold turky but this is the only way I saw. Thanks!

Hello Dr. Ajit,

Thank you very much for the fast reply. Anti-histamines actually works perfectly agains this allergy. It totally vanishes after 15 minutes of taking a 5mg only. I have sent the same message to a dermatologist to see what he recommends or says. There is a very light itching where the rash is but nothing to categorize as bothering.

Thank you again!

He says its urticaria and doesn't have anything related to liver failure due to the pattern of the rashes ( appearing and disappearing else were ). He suspects its a uriticaria (hives?). thank you dr.!
