What Causes Itchy And Red Rashes All Over The Body?
My daughter - age 20 - just called and told me that she is all of a sudden itchy and red - blotchy. She does not believe she has hives. She has not eaten anything or done anything out of the ordinary - it just started. this has happened one other time and it went away within an hour.

Hello,
Thanks for trusting Healthcaremagic!
i have gone through your query and I can understand your concerns.
It could be an allergic eruption. Probably due to drugs or foods. It can also seen following an insect bite.
You can take antihistamines now, apply calamine lotion for sooten the skin.
if symptoms persist ,consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.
thanks
