RCC docs - WTF is growing on my hand??

[slickwillie]

And no, it's not hair



A couple of days ago, the back of my hand started itching. I thought it was a bug bite. Now it's grown into some kind of funky rash/blister thing. It doesn't hurt, it's just really itchy. It's slowly spreading. I now have some of it on my wrist & forearm

WTF is it? Do I have some kind of new ebolawestnilemonkeybird flu virus? Flesh eating critters? Do I need to amputate?

You might want to refrain from spanking the monkey until that goes away.

 

[ctrwannabe]

I would take gunnars advice. Have you had any contact with weird plants or bugs latly?

My friend had the same thing happen to her a month or so ago. She went to the doctor and got it checked out. It was nothing serious, just more annoying than anything. I sent her a text a few mins ago to find out exactly what it's called. It's a similar reaction to poison ivy, but I don't remember what triggered it.

I go with eczema. I get it usually in the form of a heat type rash in between my fingers. The worst I got it was the first day I worked as a car detailer. One car on the side every once in a while at home I was OK. A few cars in a row all day being exposed to the chemicals I got it. Went to the doc and got a cream. Was gone 5 days later.

you change soaps or laundry detergents/softeners recently?

im allergic to liquid fabric softener and my skin does that exact same thing if i use clothing, sheets, and especially towels for a prolonged time. the more im in contact with it the worse it gets. starts out as small little bumps, then the bumps get bigger and you can pick 'em like little blisters.

towels are the worst because you basically wet the softener up again and massage it into your skin.

Well, I was out with my Wraith on Sunday & Monday, but don't recall seeing any poison oak or ivy. That doesn't really mean anything though. I know in the past when I've got it, I knew it right away:shock:

Stress? Don't think I'm any more stressed out than usual.
Ringworm? Don't like the sound of that.
If it gets any worse by tomorrow, I'll go to the doc & see what he says.

Nope, haven't changed any detergent/soap/fabric softener/household cleaners in a long time. I don't think it's from work. The only chems I really deal with are HF/nitric acid (rarely) & acetone (daily).
