Hiya everyone
HELP! I am getting heat spots all over my body, they are so itchy and I've made the odd couple of them bleed.
I'm itching all over, my legs, arms and buttocks are the worst affected. What can I use to stop it....I am wondering if it is the heat that is causing it, as I am so hot ( I had a high tempreture at the weekend). I keep opening the freezer door and the cold air is so soothing.

RE: HELP! I Am So Itchy.
I don't know what the matter is, but if it's anything to do with heat, I would grab a leaf from an aloe vera plant and apply the sap. It's worked for us for heat rash, nappy rash, scalds, any rash! So far anyway. So that's what I'd do.
RE: HELP! I Am So Itchy.
Hi,it sounds like its either caused by the heat like you said or its stress related.I always suffer from very itchy skin and a rash when im stressed about something.If you want something topical to apply to help the problem id recommend either dermalogica ultra rich body cream which is perfect for the most sensitive skin,or clinique deep comfort body cream.I hope this helps.
RE: HELP! I Am So Itchy.
Is it possible that you've got an infectious disease such as chicken pox? - the high temp you had at the weekend could have been the begining of it and often you feel better once the rash comes out.
I used a spray of rosewater and roman chamomile essential oil to spritz my sons itchy spots when he had chicken pox + just warm enough baths each evening with roman chamomile and bergamot essential oils added. This combination soothed the itching really well and they healed up quickly too.
Don't scratch! if it is chicken pox they will scar! (My son's only got one scar and thats the spot he got first which I squeezed, deciding what it was [&:]!)

Hiya everyone
Thanks you all for the advice. By 4pm yesterday I couldn't bear it any longer and jumped into a cool shower, it worked brilliantly, the itching stopped. (Plus cooled me down.)
I am pretty sure it's not Chickenpox, maybe it was just a virus.
