skin problems during exercise

[hubert]

I have a very embarrassing problem. It seems that when I work out, red blotches appear all over my skin. It may appear on my biceps, my stomach, my face, sometimes on my legs.

It only appears when I exercise, or when I sweat.:confused:

Urticaria, or hives, is a condition in which red, itchy, and swollen areas appear on the skin. this is mostly due to allegy to certain foods or meds, or scratching, tight fitting cloths, cold air or water, exposure to sunlight, or exercise.

Hi,,,
Its much better that you will consult this issue with the nearest doctor as early as possible.Do have the blood test immediately .In my view its probably Hives but I can't advice you anything with surety..Either post the pictures of theses swollen areas or better go to the skin specialist.

Yes it might be the blood circulation problem and you must go to the doctor immediately for check up and then apply all his prescription over your skin. I think you may have some diet problem or something is not suiting you.

its very strange for me that skin infection during exercise... I think, there is an other reason for skin infection... By the way, you should stop exercise and find the solution of the skin infection...
