Can you get a rash from crying?
Crying is a natural thing that the human body produces tears. If we were meant to get rashes while crying, our bodies would not produce the tears. So technicaly, no. You can't get a rash from crying.
I have had symptoms similar to this and it turned out that I was very very dehydrated and I wasn't producing the normal amount of moisture. It was a case of dry skin. Scratching or rubbing will just make it worse and lotion is NOT a good idea. What I ended up using was a personal moisterizer (which can be expensive). I went with a cheaper solution. I stayed super hydrated and used tiny amounts of Astroglide (which is a lubricant and personal moisterizer). That worked for me and in about a few days I was feeling comfortable and back to normal.
I hope this works for you!! If it persists, you should really go see your Gynecologist because it may be a symptom of an underlying issue!
Good Luck!
Can you get a rash from the ragweed plant?
Yes, you can get a rash from contact with the ragweed plant, although it's more commonly associated with allergic reactions to its pollen. The plant can cause skin irritation in some individuals, especially if they have sensitive skin or a pre-existing allergy. However, the primary concern with ragweed is its role as a significant allergen during the late summer and fall, leading to hay fever symptoms rather than skin rashes.
It may be a condition called Cholinergic urticaria (google it and see if it fits the description). I have had it since I was very young, and only put a name on it just recently. If it occurs when she has been out in the sun (gotten too hot) or is very excited this might be it. The rash may or may not itch, and it it harmless, although uncomfortable and sometimes embarrassing.
This actually sounds like a mild case of yeast infection. Yes, I know you think that sounds funny considering the fact that yeast infections normally happen around the genital area. But that is not the only area that yeast can be released. Yeast infections are mostly caused by anything that your body isn't used to I.E. increased heat or moisture...this in terms causes bacteria in the skin. There are many ways you can try to eliminate the problem else it will keep coming back. First of all I would recommend using a creme specially made for yeast infections. Might I suggest Metronidazole. You have to see a doctor for a script but it works. After it has cleared up, you might try changing the type of clothing you wear. Some clothes that are too tight tend to lock in moisture when you get hot and your body starts to sweat. Try wearing loose fitting clothing and I can almost guarantee it will never come back. Also, you could try using any type of moisture blocker such as baby powder or talc which in terms eliminates moisture and keeps you dry.
Fungal infection?My husband had a rash something like this, on his chest, back, and neck. He was almost not aware of it because it didn't itch and it was flat and not brightly colored. It turned out to be a kind of fungal infection. The doctor told him what kind of cream to get and he applied it once or twice a day, and the rash went away. So you need to see a doctor--you might not even need a dermatologist, though.What can you do when you have a red rash on your left check?

Lichen sclerosus, a skin disorder, can occur in children, men, and most often in women. In women, it occurs most frequently on the vulva (external genitalia). The affected area appears shiny and smooth. But as time elapses, the spots enlarge and the skin becomes crinkled. This subsequently may lead to tearing, discoloration, bleeding, and scarring. The involved area may also itch.
Though, dermatologists are not sure what the etiology is, an over-active immune sytem may play a role; other MDs feel lichen sclerosus may be secondary to a infectious bacteria (ie, spirochete) or an hormonal imbalance.
Treatment: Most patients do not require therapy, especially if the symptoms are mild. If therapy is entertained and you are a female, your gynecologist would be the one to seek counsel from. A male should seek medical care form an urologist. RBB, MD

Rash all over your body only thing you have done different was to eat a curry?
Don't eat curry for a few days, and see if the rash goes away. If it does, have some curry. If the rash comes back, then you'll know not to eat curry any more.
If it doesn't, then it was probably unrelated, and you can eat curry if you like.

Will too much salt in diet cause a rash?
I would answer yes. I had a rash around my waist and on both sides of my torso for a couple of years. About five days ago, I thought I would cut down on salting my food.
Amazingly, my rash has subsided. I have tried everything! I thought I was allergic to every food and every supplement, and every laundry detergent. Now I know it is salt.
Also, eating in restaurants make the rash come back, but I am going to check into requesting no forms of MSG be put on my food and see how that goes.

Stay out of the sun and the rash you get from being out in the sun will go away. There is no way to treat the butterfly rash on your face as it means you are having a flare. The best way to deal with it is to cover it with makeup and see your doctor for treatment to get you out of your flare.
