What Causes Itchy Rashes All Over The Body?
What is causing itchy rash over most of my body for over a month? Topicort makes blisters subside after three to four days but they can reoccur. No straight lines or patterns. Worse with heat. No changes with shampoo or soaps prior to outbreak. Can stress caused hives be the problem?

Hi.
As per your case history you are having allergic dermatitis.
My treatment advice is –
1. Avoid using any new products like soap or perfume.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic plus steroid cream like fusiderm-B cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an antihistamine like levocetirizine for 7-10days .
4. Other treatment options are oral steroid and hydroxyzine given only after consulting a dermatologist.
Thanks.
