Rashes On Body, Itching Between Legs, Feet, Arms And Hands, Used Piriton And Hydrocortisone Cream. Allergy?

Hi I have a rash that seems to be breaking out on different parts of my body.As soon as one area starts to clear out I start itching somewhere else.It is unbearably itchy,it mainly alternates between my legs,feet,arms and hands.I'm assuming its an allergy to something but piriton and hydrocortisone cream don't seem to be helping.My GP wasn't very helpful either.Its driving potty and I'm beginning to feel quite depressed with it.Can you advise me? Thank you.

Hi i think it is papular urticaria.usually drug allergy occurs all over body and scabies is ruled out as inner parts are not effected.it can be cured by atarax 25 mg at night.oral antibiotic twice daily and application of moisteriser all over body and flutibact ointment over the lesions can cure it

Greetings of the day
Welcome to healthcare-Magic

You seem to be suffering from scabies, if the itching in between the spaces between fingers , toes and butts.
Single overnight application Of Permethrin Cream Below the neck all over the body will definitely help. Consult a dermatologist.
