Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of itchy rash on body which seems to be due to environment factors, heat, cold pressure and sun exposure and it could be due to contact dermatitis.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to give cold compresses to itchy rash several times a day to prevent from swelling and itching and take over the counter antihistamine drug like benadryl. If symptoms still persist the consult dermatologist for proper examination and treatment. Doctor may perform skin test and may prescribe steroid cream(mometasone), anti inflammatory drug and drugs that can suppress immune system. Avoid use of hard cosmetics. Stay in cool and moist environment .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
