Natural Remedies for Annoying, Burning Rash from Contact Dermatitis?
Hi, I'm not sure what my problem is called but I am 53 years old and have still been having regular monthly periods. My last one lasted over 3 weeks. Over the past couple of years, I have randomly come out in huge itchy blotches which can appear anywhere on my body (particularly where my clothes rub, the line of my underwear, my shoulder after carrying a bag, etc).
The Dr prescribed antihistamines and suggested I was allergic to something. I stopped taking them as they made me sleepy and did little for the burning and itching in my skin. The problem has recently become so bad I am unable to sleep when I itch and burn all nIght. If I am patient though each flare up gradually fades after a couple of days leaving no visible marks.
Is there something wrong with my blood or how can I prevent this happening. I started taking apple cider vinegar last week and it brought my long period to an end but it hasn't helped my rash yet. I hope someone out there can identify my problem and offer a natural remedy!

Suzie, sounds like an allergic reaction, like hives or something. Keep an eye on what you ate/touched/breathed/smelled before an outbreak.
Hello Suzie, I have posted at length my success with improving menstrual cycles with the intake of daily organic plant and herb teas. Before I normalised my cycles however, I would nibble some shepherd's purse or eat tsp coconut oil, to stop the menses.
It is great that you've already seen help from the ACV, I would keep with it, it will take more time to assist in long established illnesses. You might look at the ACV and baking soda remedy, this gives more benefits than the ACV alone.
I also read that histamine is the body's warning sign of chronic dehydration, this one rang true because of posts I've read that stated when they drank more water the skin symptoms diminished. Increase your water and mineral intake. Stinging nettle is a natural antihistamine, available in gardens or you can buy capsules.
