Asthmatic, Had Spells Of High Fever At Night With Large Lesions On Skin That Itch And Burn. Cause?

20 year old female with only Asthma on my medical history. I ve been sick twice in the past month which includes a high fever . Everytime I have a fever or sleep at night I wake up with large lesions on my skin. They itch and burn slightly and they seem to start small and continue to grow in size. They re red on the sides and skin colored in the middle. We thought it was bed bugs but it only happens when I m warm? Even when I took a hot bath this morning more started to appear on my wrist and inside of my thighs. HELP!

hello

thanks for writing to health care magic

i think from the description that you are having skin allergy

you history of asthma also supports this

normally asthma may be associated with other allergy like...........skin allergy, allergic conjunctivitis etc

try to find out and avoid the allergy causing substance if possible

normally antihistminics are prescribed for treatment of allergies of skin

hope this helps

take care
