What Causes A Skin Rash That Feels Hot And Itchy When Touched?
I have a patch of skin on both arms in the same area ( upper arm from the elbow crease to the bicep) that is incredibly hot and very red. I initially thought it was sunburn but has continued now for 5 days. It is easily irritated, worse at night and with clothing.

Hello,
* The skin rash over both upper arm from the elbow crease to biceps indicates possible autoimmune disorder as celiac disease or else rather than sunburn.
Kindly get examined with an expert dermatologist for its evaluation and further management guidance accordingly.

Take care
