Hi all,
I woke up last week with what looks like splatter-painted tops on my hands and feet. There are a few more isolated little blotches on my back, legs and arms. They tingle lightly on occasion but most of the time I don't notice them. Also, I have got pretty bad dandruff all of a sudden.
I had been on antibiotics almost two weeks previously to cure a bout of tonsilitis picked up in India. Also, I had given up meat from my diet (for Lent on post-Indian health buzz.) I was sufficiently concerned about the onset of rash that I went back on the meat. It's been about five days now with little improvement. In fact, my feet have got worse.
I don't notice any other symptoms. I'm lucky to have been healthy for over ten years now so would be surprised if it was a fundamental problem. But because I'm so unfamiliar with the symptoms I'm worried about what it could be down to. Does any one have any ideas? If it gets worse I'll go visit the doc.
Much obliged,
D

I've been having similar symptoms. The tops of my feet have broken into a very sore rash with lots of red bumps and now I seem to be getting bumps breaking out on random parts of my body around my wrists and up my arms and up my ankles, on my shins, on my chest. And my scalp is itchy and all of a sudden it seems like I have a lot of dandruff also. This seems to have started around the same time as pollen allergies a few weeks ago, but I've never reacted like this before. I had a similar occurence of the foot rash with bumps a year ago, and I took wheat out of my diet for quite a few weeks and the problem almost went away. I'm taking wheat out of my diet again, but there is also the correlation of the onset of a pollen allergy.
Me to- Began with rash on back of hands and feet, small pots, that are slightly itchy, and bleed readily with just a few scratches. They have appeared randomly on my shoulders, back, stomach, lets (esp. on the back of my calves). As I said, they bleed readily when scratched. They are not getting much worse, but are not getting better!
Any how did you treat this? Am going to a dermatologist soon hopefully.
Have not changed my diet recently, is not during pollen season.
Only tried to take omega-3 fish oil to help, but has not changed anything.

I know its been over a year since this was posted, but any remedies? I woke a few days ago to a random sort of "rash" on the top of my foot, i assumed it was a spider bite of some sort. The rash developed into a sort of blotch of scar/rash, that almost looks like paint splatter (as described above), although the rash is accompanied by a painful stinging. Also, as mentioned above, i have a random break out of large amounts of dandruff, and an extremely itchy scalp. The rash appears to be isolated to my left foot, however, if it is related to what is described above, i suppose i should expect it to spread. As i said originally, is there any remedy for this?
