Rash help :(

[xJessie91x]

Anyone got any ideas what this is?! I've got a pin prick rash all over, very bumpy and a few bigger ones, they're very itchy I've been like this for a week so I'm one fed up mumma
I went docs the woman suggested it may be something I googled it, as she told me to, and that is no way what it is!

Ps - sorry pic is upside down!

Allergic reaction to something? Hives maybe? Did you change laundry detergent by chance? I have such sensitive skin that any little changes in weather or anything and I break out....

When I get heat rash it looks like that, as far as I can tell, or also if I've been bitten by midges or if I react to a product/plant etc. You could try showing a pharmacist; if you get a good one they can be better at identifying rashes than doctors sometimes. The pharmacists in the supermarkets have always been good, in my experience - although I don't know if that's the case everywhere!

Not Allergy related as nothing has changed, doesn't look like hives and i've had it getting worse for a week so I presume it cant be heat rash :/
Thank you for your suggestions ladies x

Definitely looks like hives to me. Even if nothing you can identify has changed, our sensitivity to things can change. Spring pollens currently in the air can trigger those sensitivities, even if you don't have seasonal allergies.

(Heat rashes can also come on, and then wax and wane so I wouldn't rule that one out either!)

Have you ever had chicken pox? It could be the shingles virus though I'm not certain if it could show up in the abdomen area. Hope you feel better soon
