What Causes Itching Rash On Neck?

My sister told me that I have a rash on my neck, but I brushed her off because I didn t feel anything. An hour later, I checked in the mirror once it began to itch, and I realized that my collar bone area has a large rash and bumps (and my neck is feeling weird). I just took some Reactin, because I think it was due to allergies, but I m not sure what to do.

Hi,

It seems that you may be having contact allergic dermatitis on neck. There may be some cause. Dust,housedust mite,clothes,soap,water,cosmetics,deodarant, pollen..etc may be responsible. You consult dermatologist for firm diagnosis. Antihistaminics like levocetirizine may be taken. If needed,steroids in tappering dose may be taken. Apply mild steroid cream. Avoid contact with suspected allergens. You may be benefittet. I hope you got my answer.

Thanks.
