Tiny Itchy Bumps On My Elbow, Neck, Tail Bone, Rash On Tail Bone, New Rashes Appearing. Cure For Symptoms?
Hi, I have developed tiny itchy bumps on my elbow, neck, and tail bone. I have had a rash on my tail bone area for a couple of years now. When it's hot out it becomes extremely itchy. The rash on my elbow and neck just started a week ago. The rash on my neck and elbows look like tiny little bumps. My neck and elbow rash seems to be different the the rash on my tailbone. Please help. Thank you.

Hi,
It seems that you may be having either irritant or allergic dermatitis.
There may be some irritant or allergen which might be responsible.
It may be dust,house dust,house dustmite,pollens insects,perfume,cosmetics, wool,grass,soap..and so on.
In your case,sun exposure is is aggravating factor...So, be protected from sun exposure.
You consult dermatologist for perfect diagnosis and treatment...
Anti histaminics and steroids in tappering dose might be helpful in alleviating your disease.
Local application of steroid cream may improve the disease.
Avoid soap bath.
Keep away yourself from suspected culprit.
You might be improved.
I hope you got my answer.
Thanks.
