Welcome to our forum.
it seems BP has as of today come up with a what I want to call attack of the mini misquetos....I'm calling the dr..to see what I can do they itch like crazy!!!!Do NOT say I TOLD YOU SO!
Well, I'm thinking it might be Hives..because I've been worrying alot lately and they are not rashy type..or like what I've seen as far as hot tub rash goes..they are more like...an allergic reaction to something
Is this something to EXPECT?? ??
Believe it or not, this is often misdiagnosed. Quite often it can be a heat rash and with the amount BP uses her spa, it wouldn't surprise me? Maybe a couple of opinions and a sample of your water taken to a local lab beofre you drain it would help...Steve
After having a hot tub for 2.5 years my father developed an itch condition. It was not folliculitus. It was not an allergy to a chemical, otherwise it would have set in much sooner.He developed excema. Some people will not show symptoms of this condition until they have a spa.Others will over time develope an interlerance to specific chemicals they use. Not an allergy. Quite often in these cases it is chemicals such as the sanitizer, stain & scale inhibitors or clarifiers.
what should a person do if this happens?? switch chems or something else
I wonder...would it be any different if you were going in a swimming pool everyday? Of course, they aren't usually heated and probably the heat contributes??
