It turned green weeks after i'd been stung but the swelling had gone down, it was also very itchy. Is this how most ppl react to bee stings?
If my skin blisters and turns green from a bee sting, does it mean i'm allergic to bee stings?
I'm gona guess that your either allergic OR that you have an infection from it.
Reply:more then likely
when your stung next go to a doctor and have it checked just incase
Reply:In such cases, you must see a doctor before going to the web! See a specialist please!
Reply:Allergic reactions usually occure within minutes of a sting, they can be severe or mild, and rang from swelling of the throat to a rash.
Check with your doctor. Call them on the phone, and tell them what is wrong, if they think it is serious enough they will ask you to come in to the office. Perhapse it is infected???
and check with
www.webmd.com
Reply:If you were allergic, then there would have been a respiratory reaction within a few minutes to a few hours after the sting. There would have been extreme swelling and itching. As for the rest, that is all pretty normal. The toxin can cause some minor deep tissue necrosis that will only surface like a bruise a few weeks later and isn't anything to worry about unless you develp other symptoms. The itching is completely normal.

Reply:I think you may mean eczma. It usually is a white-ish dry scaley patch, but there can be differant types. Dermatitis is probably more likely to look like insect bites
Reply:Asthma deals with breathing and your lungs - not your skin. Do you mean eczema? Eczema may look different from person to person, it is most often characterized by dry, red, extremely itchy patches on the skin
Reply:OMG I have the same hting! and my doctor didn't know what it was he said go to a dermatologist. People tell me bed bugs but there is no hole where a bug could have bit, and I'v checked my bed. Wow I didnt think anybody would have the same thing I have I've had it for like 5 months now and it won't go away. It drives me insane though. If you find out what it is can you e-mail me at jjb1118@msn.com? please I would appreciate it since I don't have the money to waste a trip to the dermatologist....
Reply:Excema Is very closely related to asthma. If you have asthma (breathing problem) you probably have excema as well. many times a doctor can tell if you have asthma just by the rashes on your skin. It can look like insect bites on the back of arms and thighs. It can also look like dry white scaly over red patches. Talk to your doctor. You need to address this problem as well as your breathing problem. My daughter suffers from the insect bite kind and has always had the little bumps. My grandson has the other red scaly type and that appears on wrists ankles and elbows. Both kids have severe asthma as well. Both types can be treated with steroid creams and lots of moisturizers. Hope this helps

Please help! Skin issue- what is this?
I have had an itchy red rash on my neck for about 5 days now, i never had it there before (although I do have these little bumps on my elbows that i have had since early childhood).It just started itching again really badly and i scratched it a little cause i couldn't stand it anymore and it got really bad. It also feels rough, like sandpaper. Any doctors out there? Is there anything i could do to relieve the redness and the itch? Are there certain fabrics I should refrain from wearing? Any avice would be helpful if it can make me more comfortable and im scared it will spread. By the way I'm a thirteen year old girl so this is very important to me. Please as soon as possible.
Please help! Skin issue- what is this?
sounds like a skin allergy to me. Watch what products you are using. Try suda creme.
Reply:Check the skin rash page at the source below for information on different types of skin rashes.
Reply:try using hydrocortisone or an over the conter itch cream, aloe is good too. its a little more expensive but gold bond medicated cream is great for itching, not sure if i would use it on the rash though, elbows would be fine%26gt; maybe you are developing an allergic reation to something new, used any new soaps, perfumes foods, medications, any thing you can think of that you hadnt used in the past. if you can think of anything, avoid using it and see if the rash gets better. good luck!

Sounds like eczema from what you've described. All you need is a tube of eucerine cream on your skin which works very well. It may not be getting better if you stay in the sun too long or shower for long periods. Try to stay out the sun as much as you can and also take very short showers with warm not hot water.
Reply:I would try a different dermatologist. They should have been able to diagnose this better by now. Good luck!
~personal experience~
Reply:Well, since we don't know what your rash looks like, this is a tough one to answer, but when I had a mysterious rash on my elbow once the pharmacist said to use a combo of 1/2 Eucerine and 1/2 hydrocortisone, and it cleared up within just a few days when nothing else had worked. Otherwise, see a another dermatologist.
Reply:go to a skin specialist
Reply:You should take a warm shower not too hot and wash your body down with a liquid soap called phisoderm which can be bought over the counter (no prescription necessary).
As I said wash your self all over with that soap. But DO NOT rub the liquid soap under your arm pits or if the rash is on your arms do not rub soap there with your hands. In other words where ever the rash is do not rub soap directly on it with your hands. The soap will just irritate your rash on the skin. Your arm or arm pits will get cleaned in general by the effect of the sopa while you are in the shower.
After your ashower dry yourself off but do not rub the rash area with the towel as this will irritate the rash just pat dry it with the towel. Wait a few minutes until you are totally dry and apply "corn starch" on the affected area where the rash is.
Just a box of plain corn starch from the supermarket shelf. Not corn starch powder with medication in it nor a medicated body powder found in the health and beauty aids section of the drugstore. IN other words just PLAIN OLD CORN STARCH which is used for cookig.
The corn starch is a natural remedy for irritated skin. Apply the corn starch in the same way that a person would put on powder after taking a "shower."
Years ago when my uncle had had a skin rash when he was a kid and had to go into the hospital they gave him corn starch baths and then applied corn starch on his rash and he was cured of his rash. I use corn starch instead of powder and it keeps the skin on my arms and legs healthy and dry.
After doing that for several days then the rash should clear up. When the rash is cleared up about 2 or 3 times a week you should take a fresh lemon into the shower with you and sprinkle some lemon over you with the shower water running over you after you have rinsed yourself completely of the soap that you use when washing in the shower. The lemon is a natural anti-bacterial agent and it will help to keep your skin healthy. Just remember to use it only about 2 or 3 times a week no more than that. This is because lemon is acidic and too often and some people can get irritated skin if done every day.
Also try not to use a cream on a rash as a rash is similiar to getting a sunburn on the skin. In other words the skin is hot and irritated where the rash is just like the sjkin is hot after a sunburn and applying a creame to the skin is like putting butter on a hot frying pan. You can hear the butter sizzle on the frying pan. The irritated skin by a rash is similiar to a hot frying pan.
Thank you for reading this and I wish you the best of success.
Also corn starch is safer than powder as there is no medicated ingredients like they put into talcum powder form the bottle of powder. Therefore there is less chance to irritate the skin.
Reply:Make a paste of fresh ginger and apply on your rashes for 3 to 5 days and it will vanish.Also if possible eat ginger achaar with your meals.Ginger is natural skin healer.
Reply:be very careful, it might be the deadly disease SLE.do immidiately skin biopsy and also all the blood tests.i warn you i have suffered enough of this disease and i too tried the same as you did, but do as i say immidiately.do not consider any herbal or natural medicine, it will only increase, i warn you for you life, because if you leave this like that the disease will bad and you will suffer.but i find that you are in the first few sympomic stages of sle.so go to a hematologist now.

Bumpy white skin on my face?
ive tried moisturizers. its not itchy or irratating. its just noticable and dry and white. it looks nasty. ive tried foundation and ive triedd all these different moisturizers, including expensive and drug store brands. i dont know what they are but i really want to get rid of them, can you please tell me how ? please answer if you really know. no stupid answers
Bumpy white skin on my face?
Are you making these mistakes each time you spot a little white little bump on your face? Fixing those little white bumps starts with a small dose of education and ends with a big dose of prevention. After understanding the five reasons below, your little bumps should give way to clearer skin.
Reason #1: You have no clue what those little white bumps are anyway.
Little white bumps, or milia, are keratin-filled cysts, or simply little globs of protein under the skin. There are generally two types of milia. Primary milia may result from oil glands that have not fully or properly developed. Secondary milia result from trauma to the skin.
Reason #2: You think all little white bumps are acne, and treat them that way.
Just because you have little white bumps on your face does not necessarily mean that you have acne. Milia, are little balls of protein beneath the skin that do not have a pore, or hole in the skin through which to escape.
Comedones or whiteheads are excess fats and wastes that are trapped in a hair follicle and so they clog up the pore. In short, milia are proteins trapped within the skin, while comedones are fats and skin debris trapped within the pore.
Exfoliating the skin, or removing the dead skin cells from your skin with an abrasive product or chemical, is beneficial. But brutally scrubbing your face with soaps and chemicals too frequently may actually create milia. To avoid this, remember that gentle exfoliation helps prevent excess dead skin cell build-up that could clog your pores and cause whiteheads, not milia.
This gentle exfoliation helps make eventual removal of the milia easier because the skin layer around the milia becomes thinner, with frequent, yet gentle exfoliation. In short, Exfoliate your skin to prevent milia, not to cure them.
Reason # 3 You have no idea what causes those little white bumps anyway.
When you were a baby, you were probably covered with milia that disappear after a few days. Or, you may have inherited milia from your parents.
On the other hand, you may develop milia after excessive exposure to the sun. The reasons for developing milia after sun exposure are debatable. According to some studies, the active ingredients sunscreens like Parsol 1789 may cause sun allergies and later lead to a milia breakout. Other studies blame the sun itself for “damaging” the skin can thus causing little white bumps.
Some people experience milia around the mouth. This could be the result of fluoride irritation from toothpaste.
Reason # 4: No one ever told you how to prevent milia.
The best way to prevent milia is to avoid treating your skin with excessively harsh chemicals and to limit sun exposure.
To reduce creating milia around the eyes, use eye creams with the least amount of ingredients possible to avoid irritating the delicately thin eye area. Also, gently touch the eyes and avoid rubbing the eyes vigorously so as not to damage the skin.
When brushing you teeth, try to keep the pasty foam from staying around your mouth too long. This limits possible fluoride irritation to the skin.
Use a sunscreen with the least amount of ingredients. Extraneous ingredients like fragrances may irritate your skin. Additionally, purchase sunscreens that offer physical sun blockage that contain active ingredients like titanium oxide or zinc oxide.
Reason #5: You still want to know what you can do right now to get rid of milia.
The key to getting rid of milia is realizing that they have no escape route, those little bumps are trapped under the skin. So, to get them out, you’ll need to have a professional like a dermatologist or aesthetician extract them. You can extract the milia yourself, but this involves risks.
Precautions You need to ensure that you milia are not symptoms of some underlying disease or illness. Also, if you extract the milia yourself, you may have trouble completely pulling out the cysts, as the removable process may prove too painful.
Otherwise, if you are confident with your health and courage, you can cleanse your hands and face. Then wet a cloth with warm water and apply it to your face for a few minutes. Gently apply a sterile needle to the center of the little white bump to create a tiny opening in the skin.
Wrap your thumbs in a clean tissue and, using your thumbs, proceed to gently squeeze the contents of the little white bump out. Finally, cleanse the area of the extracted little white bump with an astringent.
Now, you have no reason to walk around with little white bumps on your face. If you still think you do, please consider the possibility that you’re just telling yourself little white bumpy lies.

Stopping skin itch after allergic reaction?
hey there!
i recently had an allergic reaction to some ibuprofen (i didn't realise it's pretty much the same thing as aspirin)
aspirin makes me wheezy so i usually avoid it, but a friend gave me cuprofen and said there was no aspirin in it i thought it would be fine, but as i took it when i was so ill with tonsillitis i had a bad reaction to it (swollen face and a rash)
it's all back to normal now apart from one thing...
my face is so itchy!!!!!!! i've tried savlon, E45 moisturising lotion and cream, after sun cream... but nothing has helped.
can you recommend anything becuase it's driving me to madness!!!
thanks, mich x
Stopping skin itch after allergic reaction?
you can try benadryl.
but honestly i would call the poison dept, and get ahold of my doctor.
if you ever have reaction to aprin never, ever take nasids.
i wish you the best of luck.
only your doctor can help and may give you a shot of cortizone to calm your system.
my dad is highly allergic to asprin and penicillen.
he has to be very careful, with each use, it gets worse the side affects, and he ened up in the hospital.
don't fool around with your health, and don't be shy or embarassed, it's a simple mistake, and go see your doctor asap.
good luck and feel better.
better be safe than sorry!
Reply:Take a benadrill or some benadrill cream. It has an anti-histamine in it. I may have spelled it wrong, but you get the idea. Anyways, anti-histamines help to take away the allergic reaction.
Reply:Ask your pharmacist probably he will recommend an over the counter antihistamine creme.
Keep a tub of aqueous creme handy...I can recommend this for itchy skin also.
Meantime drink lots of water to flush to aspirin out of your system.
PS It would be prudent to let your doctor know that you have a reaction to asprin based products.....for future reference.

The only way is to take Anti-histamine.

Try looking up angioedema (sounds like you may have had that) Topical treatments often just cause more itching. Hope it helps

Reply:Greetings.........I'm not a physician but in my opinion you may took some medication such anti-itch lotion [calamine lotions] applyed to affected skin surface after taking bath.......the best time applying calamine lotions is before your night sleep.....
