I get this allergic reaction sometimes, on my hands, elbows and knees. It is red spots and very itchy!!! I can't seem to find out what it is! It happend everytime i go to South Africa. And ones or twice hear. When I got it the first time the doctor said it was stress related. However i got this sometimes when I wasn't even remotely stressed.

Maybe I should go for that allergy test...

Sounds like psorrairesis (sp?) which is a condition which causes your skin to shed every 4 days instead of 28 (yes we humans do shed our skin like snakes) and it is normally most obvious on your knees and elbows... Also it can cause extreme skin irritation and red spots resulting from unintentional scratching, which occur when you're asleep...

I suffered from this when we moved to SA, but it disappeared when we moved to the coast, only to return many years later... It stopped when I moved back to Denmark but has now returned yet again
