Answer2: My daughter and my niece had this when young adolescents. My niece' doctor told her she had an angry case. It usually starts in what the doctors call a tree formation. Somewhere on the face, neck or chest as a small spot, blemish or hive like rash and works its way down the body to arms, chest, back , butt and legs. Best to keep covered and avoid the sun, use things like Aveeno Bath and calamine lotion or hydrocortisone cream. Avoid being in the shower over 2 minutes, make sure the water is very hot. It will get all better soon.
