Q: Okay, so yesterday I went swimming at my boyfriends. We were in the pool for a while, and after so long my eyes started to burn really badly. We went to my house to watch a movie, and I just put soothing eye drops in, which really worked. That night, my arms, shoulders/back, neck, and scalp really started to itch. Like I barely slept they itched so bad. I guess his pool is starting to turn green, so they put this algae thing in it, but not too much chlorine. The next morning (this morning) I took a bath and felt a little better. Later, I took another one, then a super hot shower, which made me feel really good. After the shower for about two hours it wasn't nearly as bad, but it's starting to itch really bad again. Could I have had an allergic reaction to something? I guess they didn't put much chlorine in tho?
My skin isn't bumpy, but I've been scratching my skin so much, i start to get little red circles/spots on my skin, again not above my skin tho. It itches sooo bad and it's constant. What could have happened, and how do I make it go away?? I tried lotion, but I'm afraid it will make it worse or something.
Help!!! It itches so bad and I don't know what to do, it's driving me crazy! I'm afraid to go out tomorrow because it's embarrassing lol.
Thanks so much for any help lol

I would go to a clinic, and if you can't pay go to a walk in one.
Unfortenatly I'm pretty sure no one on here could help you even if you are having a bad reaction to it.
A doctor will be able to tell you whether you need to soak in a bath/shower or if you need something special.
It SOUNDS like your having a reaction and if it's been going on for a couple of days I'm sure it is...
That's the only thing I can think of though is see a doctor to help with it.
Because also, if for any reason there were chemicals in his pool that can harm you like how it's irritating your skin, you may also need medication not just a cream or whatever.
So, the only person that would know best I think, personally, would be a doctor. Good luck!

Thanks! My mom called the doctor, and I think I forgot to mention it, but I had a bladder infection and was on medication, and I think the pills and being in the sun a lot caused a reaction.
Thanks!!

Hey! =) I really love my life and the things and people in it. I love fashion, make-up, going out, dancing, teaching dance, and being with my friends and family. I feel very blessed for the things I have. It took me a while to get to this point though and I know that growing up, and even people my age, you need advice about certain things every now and then. I've always had people give me advice about things and I've been able to use their advice through my own experience and mistakes and come up with some of my own things. And now I'm the one always helping my friends out. I always have new ideas that I love to share. And well, I can't promise I'll always be able to help or give you the answer you're looking for but, I'll definitely do my best. =)
Also, whether you ask me a question in my inbox or I answer one alone I normally ALWAYS add in my experiences because for me, I like to know when people can relate and aren't just guessing, it's easier when someone has actually been through it. And I'm not going to do any favors by lying, so I am ALWAYS going to be honest. But keep in mind just becasue of my experience and my honesty does not mean I am always right and I understand that. Feedback is appreciated to know what I can work on with certain answers, not demanded.
