i am a 19 year old asian male. I have develeped LOTS of different kinds of skin problems. But about 3 months ago, i started getting itchy legs, I started scracthing and developed patches on my legs that have small red dots. i also developed some sort of raised rash on my face (under my eyes, cheeks, and eyebrows). I have simliar raised rashes as the one on my face on the back of my neck, and the crease of my leg (behind my knee). I also recently started to develop red dots all over my lower stomache, upper legs and thighs. they almost seem like an allergic reaction, but I haven't really done anything different thatn i normally would. I occasionally get a rash on my armpit. I will not wear deoderant when i have this, and it will eventually go away, but as soon as it goes away the other armpit tends to develop the same thing. I also have small bumps all over my elbows and part of my arms. THey feel extremely rough. If you were to rub it, you would think you were touching some sort of lizard. Also, my butt cheeks have been getting itchy and it leads all the way to my scrotum. The itch on my scrotom isn't unbearable

WIth all these different kinds of rashes last week, all the effected areas on my buddy (even though, they are different kinds of rashes) started to puss a yellow honey like liquid. I kept wiping it off, but when i woke up the next morning, they had turned into something simliar to a scab. some of them pealed off, and i had a shiny smooth skin under it.

I dont' know what's going on. All i know is that im tired of itching, and not being able to sleep at night. THIs has been effecting my daily life very badly. I would like to see a dermatologist, but I do not have health insurance. If there is anyone that has any of the same kind of problems, or have any form of help, it would be appreciated sooooo much.

thank you

it sounds a lot like what my dad has (he's also asian, but about 60 years old). about once every year he breaks out into pussing red rashes all over his body and can't sleep for months. it could be a severe form of eczema or psoriasis. try using some calamine lotion or hydrocortizone creme from any drug store for temporary itch relief. you should get that checked out at a dermatologist or go to a free clinic near you. try google-ing for the nearest location of a free clinic...that's what our tax money goes to =]

my family has no health insurance either seeing as my parents are business owners. my dad now uses a milder organic soap-less body wash from whole foods (or any organic eco friendly store/brand) and he lathers up with all natural lotion (none of that stuff filled with harsh chemical crap). it's worked so far, he hasn't broken out with the rash in 2 years.

That sounds very similar to something that happened to me a long time ago. I was diagnosed with impetigo. Doctor gave me some stuff to put on it and some pills to swallow and it cleared up in about a week and a half.

It definately sounds like impetigo. I had it once, and that yellow pus stuff that comes out basically scabs over. Normally it's a childhood disease but i had it in college. My doctor said that you are normally exposed around childern. I was told to clean with the blue bottle of bandaid- wash, and keep the area dry. 3 or 4 times a day. I was also given a topical cream that cleared it up. Pills would have been nice.
