Just wondering if any others have had rashes due to RSD. I started with a rash on my hand on the arm I had shoulder surgery in that resulted in crps. I had excessive sweating on my hand and then the rash. After a couple nerve blocks the rash has gone away. I had a few dots a month or so ago but nothing more.

Last weekend though I noticed a large rash on the inside of my arm, basically the opposite side of my elbow. It itched and I thought maybe it was poison oak, athough I have had no possibility of exposure. My forearm still has a lot of the odd overgrowth of dark hair. The dark hair first started on my shoulder but how now disappeared and most of it is on my forearm close to my elbow.

The rash moved around the inside of my forearm at first looking like it was spreading but as it moved small amounts the area where it first started disappeared. After about 5 days it was gone. It never turned into what my usual poison oak looks like-and I used to get it horribly bad-so I know now that's not what it was otherwise I would still be battling with it.

It was so odd to come on so quickly, be pretty isolated, and then go. Had anyone else experienced anything like this? Also being that it was on my arm where my RSD first started made me a bit suspicious. I can always add a pic but it pretty much was a standard red rash, little red bumps. The rash I had on my hand was a lot the same, but I do remember at times it looked like tapioca almost-very odd-I thought maybe it was due to the excessive sweating.

Thank you.
