I would say go to the Pharmacist and ask them, you could have picked up chickenpox or measles or something.
Take care,
are we likely to see you next week?

OH and I had very itchy skin, and redness, taken anti histamine tabs done us good. Tree sap we think. Savlon seemed to ease the itching.

Be careful Paul my bil got bitten by a tick last year, and was very ill. Went to doctors in time.

Hi Teddy - I know someone who had a tic from walking in long grass and it attached itself to under his armpit - was not very pleasant at all! I was actually thinking the same thing when I first seen this thread.

Yes Harp String, although we put Frontline on our cat, he sometimes has them, and we have to look him over,as I dont want them to fall off and attach themselves on us.
Although they are no bigger than a flea, when they suck the blood they come up as big as a berry.

My husband had this a few years back, put savlon on, it got worse came up like the Michelin tyre man seems he was allergic to Savlon. The day before it all broke out he had put the stuff on a minor cut. Pears soap has exactly the same effect on me, so could it be something you have used in the shower or bath?

I had to take my teenage daughter to the drs yesterday as last week she came out in these spots on her face and arms.
They looked liked mosquito bites but thought i had better get it checked out.
Dr said it was either some sort of pox (not chicken as not enough spots for that) or some sort of bite.
Dr said calomine lotion or antihistimines was the only answer. dont scratch them as they can scar you plus you can get infection in them.
my daughter now looks like a snowman plus she is drugged up as well.
Oh! happy days.
