What Causes Skin Rash With Stinging Sensation On Body?

Hi, I m currently experiencing this strange rash that is getting worse by the day. If my heart rate rises, or I m startled I get this hot & singing sensation on my body & even if I don t scratch I get this rash that starts out 1 bumb that turns into many all over my body. It s hot and unbearable. It causes me Lot of stress & anxiety because I can t do anything remotely physical withough breaking out on this hot rash. Can this be allergic reaction to Food? Or A drink? & is there a way to stop it from happening at all? Any drug that will just make it go away? I checked my detergent & my body was shampoo, they r the ones I ve always used.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

You might be suffering from urticaria. As you mentioned, it is an allergic reaction. The cause may be a food item or drug or changes in environmental temperature. Please try to find the cause, as the primary treatment is to avoid the cause. Antihistamines such as levocetrizine tablets provide temporary relief. You can also use calamine lotion twice daily.
If you have swelling of lips or difficulty in breathing or extensive rash, consult your Dermatologist immediately.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
