Was wondering if anyone else experiences rashes and if anyone had pictures of them. I'm newly diagnosed though I've had it since childhood. Just wanted to see if anyone is similar to myself.

I don't have any pictures of my rashes, and I didn't get very many of them, but I know that many on here have had all sorts of rashes.

Do you have pictures of your rashes that you would care to share?

It's pretty slow on the forum today, so don't get discouraged if not many post on this thread today - hopefully over the next few days you can keep this post bumped up so that others see it and can respond.

Are you meaning rashes resulting from a tick - bite (aka bullseye)

or any rashes that come up during treatment?

I never had a bullseye rash, but have had a few rashes since treatment started.

One was like "splotches" of red on my back - spaced out every inch or two.

One I can't remember.


Recently I had one on the top of my foot - and it was little red dots that encompassed one square inch.

You can use "Photo Bucket" if you want to post pictures.

Girlie, was this above the skin or under the skin?

If it's under the skin I get those too. Matter of fact I have a whole burst of them on the top of my right foot right now. They come and go in a day or two. Is this the same thing you experience.

No other way to post photos?

I think under the skin - I couldn't feel them....I'm not sure..

Do you think they're Babesia?

Right, mine is under the skin and I can't feel them either. I wouldn't call them a rash. Buhner explains they are bursted blood vessels in one of his books. I don't believe he calls out anyone one particular infection, he just explains why and how it happens when infected with lyme and co. Most likely because any of the lyme and co infections can cause it.

You have to use a 3rd party photo sharing site, then use the 'sharing' link they provide.

I've had rashes on my palms - they look like tiny reddish dots and the skin is more pale. They will form blisters if I don't address them right away - and those can be incredibly itchy and burn pretty bad. This is pustular psoriasis for me. This also happens on my feet. And the blisters aren't necessarily filled with 'pus', usually it's just lymph fluid like you would find in any blister.

I also have plaque psoriasis, but that's limited to my knees and elbows.

Here's what my feet can look like: /www.onlinedermclinic.com/dz_images/p/u/pustular-psoriasis-of-hands-and-feet_12045229634eef993dd7847.jpg

And this isn't a real good picture, but how my hands will generally look during an outbreak, if I don't treat right away:

I hope this is helpful in some way!

Mine isn't psoriasis. I'll have to load photos as the links shown don't work for me. One shares my whole photo album the other doesn't seem to work on a mobile device properly.

I also have the under-the-skin rash or whatever you call it, and it covers the top of my right foot. It's always there, but it sometimes seems lighter than other times.
