What Do Itchy Rashes On The Body Indicate?

I have itchy bumps on my body, not a rash and have had it for almost 2 mos. I am not allergic to anything that I know of, have not been in any lakes, swimming pools, etc. and can t figure out what they are from. I get 2 or 3 every day and one is on my neck, one on may stomach and some on both legs, mostly on my right leg. It doesn t look like any of the things I see online because they are few and far between. Never had any skin problems, not even acne and I am almost 75. What can they be? JUDY

Hello,

Many causes for rashes, but until the examination of the lesion, it is difficult to say what it is. It may be senile dermatitis or petechiae or purpura or infection etcetera. Please consult your treating dermatologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
