Red, itchy blotches on body after showering

I get it even when I sweat. It's any form of water. Even when swimming at the beach or in a fresh water lake. What is it.

I get the same! although when the redness of the rash goes away there are still bumps and it still itches... i got prescribed a cream AND i've tried various skin treatments but nothing has worked so far... good luck!!! :-)

I don't think mine is body lice because it doesn't itch and it always appears after any part of my body gets wet

This post was over a year ago so you may have found the solution to this problem .. if you have please reply .. I'm only 14 and I am experiencing the same red and white blotches ((mainly just on my arms)) . If you get the chance to, please reply

This is a fall allergy, caused by molds and histamines put off by dying leaves and ragweed, plants, etc. They also get into the water that you shower with. Ask your Dr for a good cortisone cream like triamcinolone cream. Clears it right up!!!!

I suffer from this too. After a shower I break out in itchy red splotches with a tiny white "insect bite" looking dot all over my tummy, chest, back, upper arms. Where I grew up as a kid I would get them then we moved from a town water town to the country and we had tank water which was filled with rain water and I didn't get them anymore (yay). When I moved back to a town with town water 2 years ago I started to get them again. I'm certain it's the chemicals they treat the water with as sometimes it's worth then other times. I've found moisturizer helps. However I'm a learn to swim teacher so I spend most of my time in chlorinated pool water and dont get them.

I've developed this too. Real nasty itch and also looks like a bug bite. . Heeeeelllppppp!!!

I am too, my doc says its ringworm

it's cholinergic urticaria, likely.

It's called urticaria ..it's a form of hives. They will slowly go away within time but it's nothing to worry about and nothing you can do to stop it. I just seen my doctor today for the same thing.

It's more often than not the force of the water. Instead of showering, try taking a bath. The pressure of the water hitting of your skin is causing it to react by going red, just like if you scratch your arm, it will turn red.
