Hi ciecie,

It could be any number of things!
Maybe your allergic to something, are you on any medication that might cause this reaction?
Have you recently changed your usual washing powder or fabric softener? Could be soap or body spray.Can you think of anything that you have used over the past few weeks that you haven't used before?. it could be anything at all.
Have you bought a new miosturizer ?

It could possibly be a household product... polish,air freshener, washing up liquid,toilet cleaner... absolutely anything at all.!

Maybe you've recently bought a new item of clothing that you are allergic to, or your eating something that doesn't agree with you!

If you can discount all of the above, then I would advise you go and see your GP and he can give you the correct medication to hopefully clear this up.

Takecare.

I have the same thing. And it really started of no where, and I really would like to know also what it is..

It sounds like a rash. Try going to the store and buy a good topical rash medication.

I have the same thing! Its on my legs, arms and hips. Someone told me it could be bed bugs but I have seen no trace of them. Its starting to freak me out, I haven't changed anything in my house. You can barely see the bumps but you can feel them and they are worse at night. Urg

They are most probably infections arising due to waterborne disease.They can be pox,chickenpox and they shall disappear in around 5-7 days

I've had them just on my arms and its lasted at least three years. I get them worse at night, but I'm not in bed. So I don't
Think they're bed bugs. It feels like there are worms crawling under my skin. I have to take benedryl all the time. Is it maybe related to menopause?

It may be a rash called Pityryasis Rosea
It is really rare, I think I have it now, just suddenly came out of no-where! Looked down and my legs were cobered with itchy red bumps. I don't know if doctors really know about it. The rash has no cure, and it can last from a few weeks to a few months. Might be good to go to your doctor and mention this rash?
That's what I am doing tomorrow =] xxx

I have had red itchy bumps on the inside of my arms and the backs of my legs. The red bumps have moved to my torso and flanks, neck both front and back. I don't have them on my face or head yet. It's 12-26 and I don't know if I can wait for my GP to open. Any advice to reduce the itch?

Samee! They're up to my chin but not on my face. Showers are UNBEARABLE they burn so bad, yet I still can barely see them! I went on vacation for 2 weeks and they went away but as soon as I got back they reappeard. I've changed my sheets but I haven't used any different lotions/detergents/perfumes.

I searched on-line for the same reason and found that this website has answered my question or provides treatment. I believe it is caused by dry skin.
