my mother in law was on vacation near washington dc. she came back to western pa with what she thought was poision ivy. normal treatment did not seem to help, it did however finally go away. two weeks later, i now have the same rash. it starts out as a barely noticeable rash under the skin....very itchy. i will have pimple like spots that have a white puss that comes from them. one day, it seeped much like poision ivy. i went to the dr last week and he gave me an antibiotic creme. it helped quickly, however i noticed that there were 3 bumps that as the swelling went down ( my arm was very swollen from it) the bumps each had a horizontal slice in them.
that was last tuesday, a week later it is almost gone from my right arm, but now the same symptoms are occuring on my left arm, neck, shoulder, and shin and a couple of the pimples on my legs. i am going back to the dr in the morning....and thoughts on what this is???? i have had no fever, i am a little fatigued but i think its mostly from my skin feeling like it is crawling. HELP!
