About three or four days ago I woke up at around 3 in the morning, my neck itching really bad. I have cats and thought they just got fleas, so I ignored it until I had to get up at six for work. When I went into the bathroom, about five minutes after I got up, it was totally gone. No itching and no redness or bumps. I thought maybe I dreamt it, but later that day I laid down in my bed to read and it happened again. I thought it was my pillow, so I tossed it and bought a new one. For good measure, I also changed my sheets and took a shower JIC it was something that got on me. But it kept happening, whenever I laid down, My face and neck (mostly, also my arms and upper back) itched and turned red, sometimes with little bumps but when I get up from my bed for five minutes its gone completely. The weathers been good so my windows open but its been open before and never (in my 21 years) has this ever happened before. There are no bugs, my room is clean and my cats have been treated for fleas. Does anyone know what this is??
Skin irritation that goes away and comes back?
I'd say it's the detergeant you're washing your sheets/pillowcases in.
Reply:Maybe it's eczema or bedbugs.
Reply:Definitely sounds like an allergic reation to something on your bed. Have you changed detergents? You can go to the doctor and they can do allergy tests to determine exactly what you have reactions too.
Reply:I'd guess it's bed bugs or the detergent you are using, or maybe even the washing machine isn't rinsing all the detergent out of your bedspreads.
Try a new hypo-alergenic detergent and rinse your bedspreads twice though the washing machine. If this doesn't work, it's time to concider an air mattress which many people think are more comfortable than the regular ones anyway. Concider that a regular mattress is twice it's original weight after 5 years of use because it's so full of body oils, grime and microscopic organisms.
