Actually sounds like heat rash. Keep the skin dry, and try to find a type of medicated powder such as Gold Bond Or Fissars

It sounds like a problem with your diet. I hope the dermatologist has some answers for you.

It's on your facial T-zone- nose, mouth and chin.-What about your forehead`?\nPlus arms and back -these are all areas where sweat accumulates.\nCould be a heat rash.\nCould also be an acute Photosensitivity reaction(PLE)\nLast option could be a dermatomycosis.\nNone of them life-threatening,just uncomfortable for the sufferer.\nStay out of the sun.Use Calamine LOTION:\nSee your doctor.

Since you have been out of the country you should call your primary physician and tell them your symptoms and get their adivice.  \nIt could be some kind of rash from fever.

I would get a second opinion, three months is an awful long time to have a rash. I've had a rash thats called pityriasis rosea and it last for about 3 months, you should check into that. Go online and see if the rash on your soon looks the same as the rash of pityriasis rosea. Doctors are not sure what its cause from, there is no medication to get rid of it and it goes away on its own. Its nothing to worry about if that is what it is.

It could be a heat rash, or chicken skin (not sure of the actual medical term but you can find it like this online) you might want to take him to a dermotologist.

It sounds like scabies. Scabies is something you can pick up from bedding, clothing, etc. It's not uncommon for children to get it at daycare. If you look closely, you might see what looks like hard, tiny blisters with a dark, pinhead center. It causes horrible itching which I think is worse at night. When untreated, the scabies like to move to the warmer parts of the body, where there are folds--like between the fingers, in the armpits, etc. The treatment, once you get diagnosed, is very simple. You'll just get a lotion or cream to apply. It's usually gone in a couple of days.

It could just be itchy because you rubbed it on the sheet, or something; as you say, psychological. The consensus seems to be to get it checked, doesn't it? I understand your reluctance. Personally, I would wait until I had to go for something else, & then say 'By the way,...' but that's probably not good advice. \n\nIt's probably OK; problems come from sun damage, don't they? Once you've had it looked at, get a close friend to regularly check it for you! They could take a photo to keep & make sure there are no changes.

could be heat, dehydration,  Hard to tell with out seeing them.  If the rashes are itchy could be bug bites or poision Ivy.  When in doubt take em in.

How very odd that your doctor told you it looked like ringworm but didn't give you any treatment.  You should see another doctor.  But until you do, change detergents to a mild one, rinse bleach out well, and do not use dryer sheets.  From the location of your itching, maybe it is where underclothing touches you and it is irritating you.  Pay attention to what you have eaten on the days it shows up. Maybe you are allergic to certain foods.  It is also possible it could be some sort of scabies or other parasitic infection.  So see a doctor.  Good luck.

You would see a dark spot.  If you get a circular rash, you could have Lyme disease.  Watch the area carefully for signs of rash or infection.  Be well!

Any rash associated with a flu should always be checked, especially if they have neck pain or stiffness. \n\nSo do see a Doctor sooner rather than later.\n\nHopefully it just the flu or may even be chicken pox\n\nGood luck
