After a phone call with the doctor, he thinks it is in fact NOT an allergic reaction.
He reckons it’s either:
Pityriasis rosea
or
Guttate psoriasis
Appointment at 5.30pm.
Also, for fellow angry skin havers, the Lush oaty shower cream (called Oaty Dreamy Creamy or something equally shit) is one of the nicest things I’ve ever used on itchy skin.
