Eczema Treatment Care

Question by kristy_la86: I have a very strange rash/red bumps on my body, could it be flea bites, heat rash, eczema?
I have red bumps in big patches all over my body. They itch really bad, and you can’t really see most of them until I itch them, I have them all up my arms on my elbows (those ones look different, dryish) some on my lower stomach, and legs. I lotion ALOT. I thought it could be flea bites maybe? We just put new carpet in our place, cleaned all our sheets -bedding washed both cats and got flea collars and I still have it. It got alittle better and then just came back again. Does anyone know what it could be? Also, maybe somethin from the lake maybe because Ive been going there lately. I appreciate any help!
pretty sure its swimmers itch ive been researchin online and it makes the most sense specially how its come and go when ive been to this one lake. i dont have inscurance so i dont really have the money to be visitin a bunch of doctors unless it doesnt go away, thanx for all ur help1

Have you ever had chicken pox. Go see a skin doctor or your family doctor for a professional opinion.

i didnt get it until i turned 40. it itches terribly bad. i have went to several different dermatalogists and all they do is give me steroid cream. it only helps temporarily. do you know of any home remedies or anything that works. it has been 7 years now and it looks pretty bad. it is red , scaly , and awful looking. any ideas would be greatly appreciated. thank you and GOD BLESS.
