Is histamine present in sunburn?
Not commonly no, but in certain cases yes (depends on the individual and how their body responds to the radiation in the sunburn).
Histamines are produced by mast cells (white blood cells), they are released and cause an inflammatory response where there is an invading foreign pathogen in the body. This is an immune response telling your body that an unknown pathogen is trying to enter, and it shouldn't be there. When you are affected by sunburn, your body is invaded by the harmful radiation of the sun, which isn't supposed to be there. In most cases treating it with Aloe Vera, or other moisturizers will help the skin heal over the course of 3-4 days.
However, in some cases, if the sun exposure is bad enough, around 24-48 hours after the burn, you may experience an uncontrollable burning/itching (most commonly in your back). This is the response of your body releasing histamines to tell you there's radiation damage in your skin. The body tries to close the pores of your skin to prevent any further penetration, this causes the heat already under the skin to be trapped. Which is why along with the itching and burning, your back feels like it's 105 degrees Fahrenheit. This is also why at this point lotions like Aloe Vera, and even sprays with Lidocaine don't help. Instead they act like a wall on top of the closed pores, guaranteeing no heat will be released.
(Solution)
Many people have scoured the internet to find the solution to this problem, and many have home remedies that help. However, to stop the uncontrollable itch you have to understand what caused it. So, since we know that Histamine release is the cause of our discomfort, any over the counter Antihistamine will work to reduce the symptoms to a bearable state. After 24-36 hours after the itching started, the itching should no longer require treatment, and your skin should feel better again.

Is it bad to have a cluster of acne in one part of your face?
It is not particularly worse to have acne concentrated in one part of your face as compared to having acne evenly distributed across your face, but in either case, it is undesirable, and you should keep your face cleaner, to allow more oxygen to reach the bacteria.
I lived with rash allergies for several years. Not just little itchy spots, big welts covering my torso, legs & arms. Along with cutting out the 10-12 major allergy producing foods (shell fish, milk, excess citrus), I FOUND A DOCTOR WHO FOUND MY THYROID LEVELS "LOW-NORMAL". BY STARTING THYROID MEDICATION, MY HIVES SUBSIDED CONSIDERABLY. EVEN IF YOUR THYROID IS CONSIDERED LOW-NORMAL OR HI-NORMAL, GET THE MEDICINE. INSIST THAT YOUR DOCTOR PRESCRIBE THE THYROID MEDICINE. IF THE RASH CONTINUES AFTER A MONTH, YOU'VE ONLY LOST THE $12 OR SO ON THE MEDICINE.
Is it normal for cellulite to look worse before better when working out?
Cellulite is just fat, and the skin in that area is thin enough that it isn't able to smooth the surface. As you loose the weight, the skin will be loose for a while and the cellulite will look worse. As you continue to work out, the fat will continue to diminish and the skin will tighten up (provided that it isn't all stretched out of shape) and you'll look much better. Understand that the first stages of working out will mainly tone your muscles. Calories are burned MAINLY by the muscles, so as you continue to work out your muscles will start to burn more and THAT's what becomes the big help in loosing the weight as you continue. Remember that a well toned, moderately muscled body looks HOT!!! That's the image you're looking for. Don't get distracted by the temporary detours along the way. Keep up the exercise program, and good luck.
Can gasoline cause a skin rash?
Yes. I help maintain the gas pumps at a convenience store, and when I get even a small amount of gas on my skin, it breaks out into little red dots, swells, itches, and stings. Assuming the gas has already been washed off, you should run cold water over the rash to sooth it, pat dry, rub on somehydro-cortisone, and possibly cover it if you'd like.

Celexa, Seropram or Citalopram can definitely cause skin conditions, including hair loss and acne.
I have been on this medication on and off for about 15 years.
Every time I am off Citalopram, the acne disappears and my hair loss ceases.
Every time I get back on this medication, due to seasonal depression teamed with life events, the acne returns and so does the hair loss.
Whether on or off Citalopram, I don't change my diet.
And when I get off Citalopram and have stress to deal with, or PMS, I still don't get acne or hair loss.
If you have eczema can you shave your legs?
You can shave you legs...but I have found in my own experience that it only worsens the condition. I suggest you use moisturizers daily, and get a prescription from your doctor for a topical creme you can use to clear it up. Until everything is completely gone, do not shave. It should only take a couple of weeks.

What causes an all over rash that is red and pimply?
It could be several things:
1) an allergic reaction to a food you ate. Remember what foods you had within the last 24 hours and see if there was anything strange.
2) A heat rash. This is common is you are in a warm or humid climate where your skin sweats, is touching on itself or chaffs on fabric. put aloe or a hydrocortizone cream on it.
3) If the person with the rash is sick and has a temperature, it could be symptoms of scarlet fever. this can be serious and will need medical treatment.
There are more reasons, but those are the most common. Try drinking lots of water and putting a soothing anti-itch cream on the affected areas. If it does not clear up within 48 hours, see your doctor.
Unfortunately she has already made her choice as you already set the president. Once the damage is done it is hard to believe one can change especially if it has been a short period of time as one would say anything to get back what they lost. It is best you let her be now and move forward and learn from all of this - really take the time to fix what is considered to be your "bad habits" as to not repeat this in future relationships.
