Rashes and itching on legs,arms,chest
My fiancée has been getting rashes started on her legs then arms now her chest that constantly itch, it's been going on for about three weeks now and it's mostly during the evening and nights, we just picked up her B12 shots at the pharmacy and figured we'd ask the pharmacist and after showing him pics and telling him about it. He said it sounds like transfered from an animal to human but it doesn't happen to often but is common and seeing that I haven't had any problems.
We were thinking eczema but its worst in the evenings and we've used four different kinds of eczema lotions on her and not much help.
She's taking different vitamins and is allergic to penicillin

Your fiance is probably suffering from what Dermatologist call urticaria. Common causes are food allergy infection or drugs. It presents with itching resulting in formation of red rashes which we I call hives or wheals. Although in most cases cause remains unknown in spite of a thorough search. It can be symptomatically treated so that you do not get any new hives and the treatment should be prolonged until it resolves which usually takes 1 to 6 months. Please consult me in private for further details or visit a nearby Dermatologist
