Weird rash?
Last night a few of my friends and I were at the beach and this was like right behind my beach house. Two of them passed out and we didn't feel like dragging them inside so we just stayed out there a little while and we accidentally fell asleep on the beach.
Yeah, not too smart but when we woke up, three of us had this weird red bumpy rash. I was sleeping on my back and I got it on my lower back. Another girl got it on her arm and my other friend also got it on his back, but upper back.
Has this happened to anyone before? Do you think we should all go to the doctor and get it checked out or just wait and see if it goes away? The rashes all look the same so we're pretty sure it was from the sand or something.

It could have been sand fleas but it could also have been heat rash, perhaps. If it's lots of very small raised red bumps, that is likely to be heat rash, especially if it itches. If the sand was hot that day, it might be that it just made your skin very hot from lying on it.
The best thing to do is to go to your doctor or to a pharmacy and ask them to check it out. They will be able to recommend a skin cream for it.

it probably is from the sand. it should get better, but if it gets worse, go to the doctor. i have a friend who is allergic to sand fleas, so if any of you have an allergic reaction to whatever this rash is (or if you got bit by sand fleas... you might not even know it if you did get bit by them) be sure to go to the doctor.

It's probably nothing more than sleeping on sand and it being a bit abrasive. However, just to make absolutely sure there is nothing wrong go and see your doctor or ask at the local chemists. They will probably just recommend an anti-allergy cream or a soothing balm. In future don't fall asleep on the sand directly - lay out some towels or something similar. Have a lovely summer.
