How did society recover after the black plague?

The people who were left when a town was killed by the plague would work together to support the people who were left. When I lived in Germany I knew a family whose ancestors were one of four families left after the plague hit their area. The survivors divided the town into four sections and the modern family I knew had recently sold the section that their family kept since the plague. Because of the loss of workers and crafts people the survivors stepped in to fill the gaps. This actually created an upward movement for people allowing them to live better.

What illegal drug might cause a rash?

Opiods (morphine, heroin, etc.) are most strongly associated with itching as they release histamine making users itchy. Crack and meth heads pick and scratch more than they itch.

Scientists still dont completely understand why people itch, or what stimulates the urge. However, in Pop culture, "itching" is a slang demonstration of being addicted to a drug and needing more of it. Purely just an example of being controlled by an addiction.

...A well documented symptom of amphetamine or cocaine induced psychosis is the illusion of having worms crawling under your skin. Long term crack and meth addicts will also pick at themselves until the have scabs on their face and body. This could constitute itching and is a widely observed fact, not pop culture.

How do you detect a dangerous rash?

My doctor told me to start "rotating" things such as for a few days use a different lotion, then a soap, then a laundry detergent, etc. Also foods, medications and fabrics may need to be rotated.

Your best bet really is to go get allergy tested.

You will probably have little red bumps all over your body an if its something you ate or got into your blood stream into small cuts, you will have them on your tongue also.

It is an allergic reaction if it is sudden and keeps spreading over hours. Then, you look at what you have eaten, worn or done differently over the past few days. Taking benedryl can help alleviate some of the reaction, but once you've been exposed to a "toxin" it takes a few days to pass it. Oatmeal baths and Aveeno anti-itch creams help. OTC 1% cortisone cream can also help, but not for long term. Avoid spray on "--caines." Major culprits for me are soaps with bleach, makeup, lotions, new clothing/sheets/towels and new meds. Try putting a cup of white vinegar into your final rinse cycle to get the soap residue out.

How do you get rid of itchy rash after pregnancy?

Hydrocortisone GEL, not cream or ointment will alleviate the itching and the pain, but the way to cure it is by taking prednisone. My wife has had her rash for three weeks and starting taking the prednisone last night. The swelling is gone and so are the bumps. She is not itching and there is only a little redness. She started taking it at 9pm last night and I am typing this at 8am the next morning. This is great! She is getting back to her normal jolly and happy self..........So the prednisone is great for us dad's too!!! :-)

Day three...my wife is back in her sexy clothes and out of the robe that she has been wearing for three weeks. She is off with mom shopping.

One week later........rash is completely gone.

The price of the prednisone which was prescribed after she called her doctor was 4 dollars.

What could small red itchy bumps confined to torso that is back and chest be?

I am no professional but I researched lots after my husbands ordeal. If they also look like blisters (which may burst and ooze out fluid and get very itchy) , you may have shingles. You may also feel a stabbing like pain. If so, then you should get checked out as it might be shingles. My husband had it about 20 years ago and I had to completely soak the areas with several bottles of calamine lotion a few times a day to relieve the pain and itch. He was basically bed ridden for about 1 month as he had it bad with the itch and pain. He also used a pain killer such as Tylenol etc. The blisters have to basically dry up and will look crusty. That shows the healing and will be very itchy at that point as well. But I would see your doctor first. Even though my husband no longer has shingles he still feels the effects today sometimes.

Hope this helps. Do a Google search online for "SHINGLES" and see if that is what you might have. You will see pictures etc. Make sure you get it looked at by a your doctor.

Good luck.
