Ok, so. I have had this for as long as I can probably remember. I noticed it way back when that when I would get out of the shower my knees and thighs would look red and blotchy. It would go away after like 15 mins and wouldn't be itchy or bothersome.
More recently, I have noticed it a TON on my back. And the hot water seems to make it irritated/itchy while I am in the shower. I've recently started taking luke warm showers and not hot showers because the hot water seems to bug it so much.
I'm wondering if it's got something to do with the heat? Because I have noticed when my back is in the open, its fine and not itchy at all. But when I have clothes and am in the shower, it gets irritated. I also have noticed this under my breasts a little as well.
I don't really know what I can use to maybe help it a little
& with summer coming it's kind of making me a little self conscious :/ Also was gonna start tanning in a bed again (I've been a religious self tanner for 5 years... I'm getting sick of it, lol) but I don't want to with this going on.
Any suggestions of anything that might make it a little better?
Also - my boyfriend has told me its there even when I'm not recently out of the shower but it isn't red then. He said it just looks like a skin discoloration...???
