Actually, it is very bad to scratch a rash. If you have a rash from Allergies or poison ivy, scratching it can do several things. First off, it can cause infection and damage your skin. Also, you just don't want to because it will make the unbearable itch even more unbearable and spread it. People have told me that they got poison ivy and the itch was really badly unbearable and it started like on their arm or leg. Then as soon as the touched it and then touched another part of their body, that started to itch. So instead of one place that's unbearable itchy, your whole body can turn unbearably itchy for days. Just imagine sitting there for a few days shaking because your body is so itchy. It's best just to find something to do to occupy your time so that you don't think about it as much. They can be hard to ignore at night though. I talked to a person with a really bad foot rash and she said at night she couldn't sleep because the itch was so unbearably bad. But she fought it through and didn't scratch. It benefited her in the long run. You may also wake up in the middle of the night with an itchy rash. Mosquito bites are also bad to scratch. I've been woken up in the middle of the night with the itchy bites. When you scratch them, they itch more. So, if they itch like crazy, you scratch, the itch even crazier, you don't sleep. Yeah, they're not fun. Just find some cream to put on them and then ignore it.

Does Jennifer Hudson have stretch marks?

She has a LOT of stretch marks, mostly in her arms, and she also has them on her boobs. But every woman has stretch marks, it's natural. Jennifer has more because she used to be fat. When you gain weight your skins stretchens, and she had a lot of fat in her arms. She probably has stretch marks all over her body.. Just remember is not a bad thing, it would be a bad thing if she didn't have them (because then she would be a freak of nature)
