What you describe sounds like chickenpox.  If you never had this when you're a child, this is very likely.  If it is chickenpox please don't scratch, any you break open will leave nasty round scars!

Considering the location on your body where the rash is occurring, my guess would be most like heat rash. And yep, the humidity won't help, either. If you can get your hands on a clay-based talcum powder (Burts Bees make one, don't know if you can get it there, though), wash the affected areas thoroughly, dry completely, then apply the talcum to those areas. In a pinch, cornstarch will help somewhat, but the clay talcum works the best of everything I have tried. Also try wearing underwear that allows the skin to breath, like all-cotton, just so long as it does not contain manmade fibers. And you want it to fit in such a way that it prevents rubbing and further irritation of the skin. Hope this helps, I know how miserable rashes can be.

Sounds possibly like urticaria (hives), which could be an allergic reaction, or due to a number of other things, including an infection. I know a LOT of people who have chronic hives, and many of them first thought they had flea, chigger or mosquito bites. It's a very common misdiagnosis for hives. And hives do tend to follow a pattern of appearing to follow each other, and often appear along areas where clothing may be tight (such as bra lines) or the skin may be chafed or otherwise irritated.\n\nTry bathing with Aveeno, it;s an oatmeal powder that is made to mix with bathwater, you can find it at any drugstore. Mix one packet with warm water (not hot - heat will likely make the itching worse) and soak for as long as you comfortably can (15-30 minutes). OTC antihistamines such as Benadryl may help, but it's better to consult a doctor than trying to dose yourself with medications.\n\nIf you continue to have this rash for a while (weeks), you really should consult with a doctor, since there are some systemic conditions, including cancers, which can cause a persistent rash. Not to scare you, but they should be ruled out.

start with cortizone cream. if that does not work see a docter for something stronger. Find the source of the rash and get rid of it.

Although some people have suggested scabies, it doesn't strike me as sounding typical of scabies (location is usually first noticed on wrists). Sounds possibly like urticaria (hives), which could be an allergic reaction, or could be a physical urticaria, such as pressure urticaria. How long have you had this? Does heat, such as from a hot shower, make it worse?  Is the rash worse after sitting for extended periods, or if you're sweaty? How big are the wheals (individual mosquito bite looking things)? \n\nTry bathing with Aveeno, it;s an oatmeal powder that is made to mix with bathwater, you can find it at any drugstore.

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

You should try to find our what caused the rash. But for immediate relief, use calamine lotion, and have a anit histamine. If it does not settle you should see your doctor.\n\nGood luck

Depends on the cause of the itch. Do you have a rash, or just itching?

Sounds like tinea versicolor. It's a skin fungus and easily treated with selenium sulfide lotion.

the rash is generally caused by irritation from tiny hair like objects that the leaf of various plant such as Poison Ivy have on the surface.  These hairs enter your skin and the rash is the effect of your body trying to eject the foriegn objects from the skin, I believ that the leaves may also contain certain types of toxins that your body reacts to.

it is probably ring worm or mange, you can put some jock itch cream on it and it should clear up in a week

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 mild herpies infection. there are two types one is quite mild and one can be a b*tch. you should go to the doctor and get tested while the bumps are active ( culture) its better to know as this can be spread to the eyes and other areas of the skin. \nit may also be an allergic reaction to soap or other health care product.  \n  it  could be just a couple of pimples. only u and your doctor can tell for sure so dont put off a visit , ok
