Suggest Remedy For Skin Rashes

I have two types of rashes all over my body. One very itchy with raised bumps. Another that looks like bleeding under ny skin. I saw a rheumatologist who is testing my platelets. To see if they are working right. The test is platelet aggregation study. The dermatologist also drew blood to check for something but not sore. This rash responds to steroids. I have had it since May and it is driving me crazy. I had a biopsy and it showed high eosynaphyls. Yes I went through the mite medicine. I have Sjogren and R.A. So far the doctors do not talk to each other and I am bruising eVry where and I am getting worst. Went off and all meds. What should I do? Taking antihistamines though.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of skin rashes which seems to be caused by allergy which is an immune system reaction. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor may order skin test , elimination diet , blood test or oral food challenge. Doctor may prescribe omalizumab or oral immunotherapy . For now avoid the most common sources of food allergens: milk, eggs, peanuts, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, soy and wheat and take anti histamine like zyrtec.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
