Deep And Itchy Rash. Why Are They Inflamed? What Can I Apply?
2 weeks ago i got a deep, bumpy, very itchy rash only on my calves that when I scratch , bleeds . It is slowly spreading up to my knees especially the back of my knees. Areas of skin get very red (inflamed) different times of the day. Cold compresses on most itchy places seem to help the inflamation and itching some. Can t help but scratch in early morning, afternoon and before bed. Thought it might be allergy rash to suppliments. Stopped them a week ago and rash is still spreading.

SUPPLIMENTS ARE KNOWN TO CAUSE
YOU DONT USE SUPPLIMENTS IF ALLERGIES ARE THERE

TAKE FORCAN 150 MGM ONCE A WEEK FOR 6 WEEK
TAKE ALLEGRA 120 MGM DAILY FOR 3 WEEK'
KEEP SKIN DRY
