Hi. I have had similar symptoms and it may be that you a sweat rash of some sort. Especially common under the boobs and the white bumbs may be associated with a fungal infection. Hard to tell for def without seeing. Really easily treated using an antifungal cream such as canesten or daktarin. Both OK in pregnancy. You need to use until rash clears and then for at least a week after to prevent re-infection. This may be why the vaseline etc is not working as not treating the infection. I would go and see GP or pharmacist who should be able to confirm if this is the case hth xx

it might be PUPPP or intrahepatic cholestasis, I'm itchy from head to toe and have this little pimple like bumps on my tummy and boobs, go to ur GP and get some itch relief oinment or cream if it still doesnt work they might give u antihistamines.

Hi just wondered if anyone else is getting really harsh red dry skin, i have been getting it really bad on my hands so bad that it bleeds sometimes and also around my mouth and under boobs
ive tried to get rid of it with vaseline moisturiser and other things similar but nothing seems to help it just makes my skin itch even more and white lumps appear . Its so itchy too. Just wondering if its serious or if anyone else has been getting this and if so have you found anything that helps get rid of it. Thanks





Thanks for the advise i think il visit gp on monday just incase but about the white dots that only happens when i try to use a moisturiser like vasaline but then they go away so maybe it was a reaction to vaseline.
