Very Strange..and itchy!


Question Posted Wednesday May 30 2007, 12:46 pm

I bought a new shirt last week and wore it the day after I bought it. Well that night I noticed this weird pattern of bumps the upper part of my inner arm. It's been over 2 days and it's still there!

It itches really bad and looks like an oval of mosquito bites or pimples, but that's not what it is. On the shirt there was a similar pattern of jewels right there, so I'm thinking I had an allergic reaction to the jewels or something. But wouldn't it be gone by now?

Does anyone know what it could be or how I could get rid of it quicker? I've been putting my niece's eczema cream on it and it hasn't helped at all. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Don't worry, your just having a reaction to the shirt you bought. I did the very same thing once. I bought my shirt, and as soon as I got home I put it on. Later that evening my entire chest was covered in tiny red dots. My advice to you is next time you buy any article of clothing, make sure you wash it before you wear it. The dots, or spots, or whatever you want to call it will go away in a couple of days. My spots took 5 days to go away, but they didn't itch or anything. Tell your mom about it, and if you still have the spots within a week, I'd go tell your doctor about it. You can always take benedryl if the itching gets unbearable. Hope this helps.:)

ok well first.. you should always wash a shirt before wearing it. you never know where the shirt has been or who has tried it on before you. so always be sure to wash it before wearing it. Second, try using hydrocortizone cream, that should help the rash to go away. If not go to a doctor and have them check it out.

try calamine lotion on skin, triple antibiotic ointment on skin or benydryl if you are not allergic to it. Sounds like an allergic reaction perhaps the studs or jewels they used on the shirt have like a gold or silver backing that attaches them from the inside to the outside if this material is cheap (like fake earrings or rings etc..) it can make you alleric like when people wear fake gold. If it does not go away go to te emergency room, or a dermatologist, or take the shirt back to the store while the rash is still there or write the manufacter.maybe even take pics and send them.also last but not least te last person to try it on in the store could have had a contageous rash. Good Luck stop in my column again and let me know if this helps Hope you feel better
