Red Itchy Spots On Panty Lines And Bra Straps. What Could Be This?
For the last month I have had red itchy spots appearing mostly along my panty lines and bra straps. It is not mosquito bites, they itch more and last for 2+ weeks. After a few days they seem to get kind of a head and weep a bit. As I think they are improving I seem to get more. I am not sure if they are spreading or if I am exposing myself each week as I mow lawn. I never feel anything biting me, I notice the spots and the next day they seem to begin REALLY itching. Any ideas what would cause this?

Hi,
From history it seems that you might be having some allergy to synthetic bra and panty.
Or this might be due to constant friction of inner wear to skin causing allergic reaction.
Avoid synthetic clothes or inner wear.
Wear cotton wears and inner wear.
Take antihistamine like Cetrizine or Benadryl for few days.
Apply triple acting cream if require.
Ok and take care.
