Recurring Non-itchy Streaks On The Body. Should I Seek Doctor's Attention?
Hello. I have non itchy red streaks on my body that appear in various areas on my skin. They are usually in a straight, thin, and cut into the skin. I don't scratch the areas, but discover them as I am noticing. It has been recurring on a regular basis for a prolonged period of time. I have asked for help, but don't seem to be getting the real solution. I haven't heard or seen this before. Could I have something internal that I need to check out? Also, I am on different medications. My pharmacist didn't want to point at that being the cause at the present. Would you be able to help.
Thanks,
Cindy

Welcome to HCM.it would be best to rule out drug induced allergy and allergy due to environmental allergens.It would be prudent to stop the drugs one by one so as to isolate the offending drug with th eadvice of your doctor.The opinion of a Allergist/Dermatologist or a immunologist may also help.
