What Causes Light Pink Rashes All Over Body?

I have an itch-less rash mildly spreading around the body, it has a mild pinky color. I haven t had chicken pox before and I m allergic to insects bites, I usually get the same rash I got this time but it usually itches and spreads only on the region I was bitten.

Hi,

As per your query you have symptoms of light pink rashes all over body which is known as dermatographic urticaria which could be due to increased skin sensitivity and compromised immunity of body. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to:
- Avoid sun exposure
- Apply broad spectrum sunscreen with SPF 15 even if you are not under sun exposure
- Drink plenty of water and apply cold compresses to the affected area
- Take over the counter anti allergic drug like Benadryl or Zyrtec

If symptoms doesn't get better in 3-4 days consult dermatologist for proper examination and treatment. Doctor may prescribe steroids.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari, Dentist
