What could this be?

Question

Okay so I’ve had this rash for a couple of weeks now; I don’t know what it is or if I should be concerned. Any other mommas have anything similar? I’m trying not to freak myself out. It’s all over as you can see from the pictures.

Answer

Is it itchy? How far along are you? Could be PUPPPS

Answer

That looks like PUPPS, I had it right after I delivered my first son. I used Sarna lotion for the itch and showered and bathed in oatmeal. It went away after two weeks, but I was so itchy it was awful.

Answer

I was recently diagnosed with PUPPS and my rash looks so similar to that. It started on my stomach and spread to my chest, neck and arms. The itching & swelling was so bad a week and a half ago that I had to go to the ER and all they said was that the only cure was having the baby and advised me to take some benedryl. I started googling remedies and after taking showers with grandpa’s pine tar soap, drinking dandelion root tea, drinking vegetable juice and trying to eat as clean as I possibly could, my rash started going away! I hope you find some relief!! PUPPs is the worst.

Answer

Could just be chronic dry skin but I'd mention it to your doctor for sure
