miss_h_kool_g	Duh! You got something that needs some attention. If it's been there for more then a couple days even. Only a doctor can prescribe what you need. Don't be stubborn or lazy, just go! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Kelli	If the itching is spreading id see a doctor but if not maybe wait it out. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

lIsa g	You could have some kind of food or detergent allergy. Have you changed your soap, dishwashing liquid, detergent, etc. recently? If so, maybe try not using that product for a day or two to see if the symptoms subside. You could also have a food allergy that you aren't yet aware of. Try to think back and figure out if you've added any berries, nuts, dairy products, etc. that you haven't eaten regularly before. If there is something that stands out, don't eat it for a few days and see if the splotches go away. To relieve symptoms, Benadryl is pretty reliable. It'll likely make you drowsy, but it should take the itch away. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

1st baby due Dec, ITS A BOY!!	yes go to the doctor just cause no one else is not getting bite dont mean its not a bite. my hubby has gotten bite 3 different times during the nite by a bug and I sleep next to him with no marks. Also when I was a child I caugh head lice from a girl in school and my dad said it was not lice cause no one else in the family had gotten it. turns out cause they all did not wash their hair everyday. Let alone more then 2 a week and I showered and washed my hair everday thats why i was the only one,. Bugs actually like clean people over dirty. Scary right. Was this answer helpful to you?

Alaina C	Have you checked your bed for bed bugs? It is possible that your room is the only one infected... That said, it is usually better to get these things checked out. Are you having any other symptoms? Any diet changes? Does your throat feel tight or swollen? Feel light headed? Are you under an unusually amount of stress? All those questions could point to what is going on or there may be something that only a doctor can see.... Its up to you to decide if you are going to wait it out or not. If I had insurance and your symptoms I would not hesitate to go to the doctor... Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Anonymous Coward	Well, of course, the standard answer is yes, you should go to a physician. Not that this is legitimate medical advice or anything, but...your itchy marks...are they kind of flattened bumps that are lighter colored in the center than they are around the edges? If so, it could be ringworm, which is treatable with over-the-counter athlete's foot cream (which can treat fungal infections on the skin anywhere on your body, not just your feet). Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
