Can HIV cause skin rashes or skin problems? What if I’m too scared to be tested?
Skye asked:
I’ve been having lots of problems with MRSA skin infections mainly from follicuitis (infected hair follicules). Now, I’ve been getting strange rashes. I’ve a bunch of itchy bumps running up my whole side. I’m scared I may have HIV and I’ll only know if I am tested. I am in a very high risk category being an ex-intraveneous drug user along with having unprotected sex with multiple partners in the past. I’m just too scared to be tested!!! Please help me with any information!

kelli k asked:
My friends dogs have strange black marks on their back skin and is causing some hairloss. On one of them it hurts really bad. She knows they have fleas but, this doesnt seem like something a flea could do?
It would help if i could see pictures to compair it with what i see.

Why does my Cystic Fybrosis create skin problems?
sara d asked:
I am 13, going on 14, and I have had some strange skin problems my whole life. They just recently(past 1-2 years) started to upset me. It’s allover my face. [Noticably] Started when I was about 5 years old, it started on the right side of my face, and has spread to my whole right cheek, a little in the center of my chin, just across my nose, and between my eyebrows. It gets more noticable the more I cough. The specks are small, and are somehow like tiny “dashes”and and scattered. I wish I could describe them best.

But I am not really comfortable with my face like this. And my mom doesn’t really make me feel comfortable talking about this stuff. I want to get rid of it. But first I need to know what the real problem with it is.
What procedures would help? Any thing I can do myself?
Oh, and the doctors, when my mom first asked(when it showed up originally) they said it was dead blood cells caused to die by my coughing. They didn’t explain anything more.
Can anyone help?

Is there a topic that concerns unexplained reoccurances of skin disorders? such as developing blister-like lesions on the face and arms one day, and weeks later being diagnosed as having the shingles?
