Red spots on me.

I have red spots all over my torso. I noticed it yesterday and I wasn't really in the mindset of thinking straight so I shrugged it off. Low and behold, it got worse. It spread to my back, shoulders, parts of my arms and legs. It's not itchy, it's not bumps, I don't think it's acne unless i'm going to get absolutely fucked up by it. I don't know what the fuck it is, and I've never had it before. My doctors office is closed sundays so i'm sitting today out and waiting to see what the fuck this is.


If anyone has had this, or knows what it might be, it would be so greatly appreciated, because I have no idea what i've done recently that would have triggered this.

Maybe give us an idea of what you have been doing to maybe make an assumption? My guess is allergic reaction to something. Have you changed anything in your laundry recently?

I have seasonal allergies, as does my sister. My mother stays on top of things such as, keeping all the soap in the house the same for long periods of time, using the same detergent and stuff like that.

The only thing that has changed would probably be my sleep cycle which just randomly clocked itself back to a 1am-9am, from 3am-noon+. which was weird.

It's probably fifth's disease, I got it when I was younger, you just get red spots all over your body that don't do anything it's stupid but nothing to worry about hopefully.
According to that it makes you itchy and shit and you get sick but I didn't so I dunno

that seems like the right answer. I've been smoking/drinking for a few days straight so I didn't notice that i've had a constant headache, and slightly swollen tonsils, and a bit of a fever. (quite honestly I thought it was the early stages of a sinus infection before the dots showed up)

I think that you're right. +k to you, you've made me a lot less worried.

Theres a smaaaall chance it could be scarlet fever. I got it when I was younger but it's super rare nowadays thanks to modern medicine. Go to the doctor because if it is it's no bueno I don't think.

I'm going tomorrow regardless of if i'm convinced i'm healthy or not, as if it something that needs treatment I really don't feel like pushing it off. Been there, ended so badly it wasn't even funny.

Have you done the glass test? Roll a clear glass I we it with a little pressure. If it disappears it rules out a few things.

Doubtfully, because they don't itch. I have a few mosquito bites, but that's just from well you know, getting bit by mosquitos.

perhaps wrong washing powder is the case, and you're having some sort of allergic reaction to it?
Try changing to a neutral product for sensitive skin.

Im not the pussy that is allergic to washing powder and makes a useless thread that is clearly not going to tell you anything correct until you go to the doctor.

It'll probably get you some medical attention too even if it doesn't work, which would expedite the solution in any case. Sounds like a win/win to me!

I'll be pulling' for ya man.
