I live in georgia and I am outisde (a serious cyclist} in sun a lot. I only get this in the summer. It comes on and I itch a little for a few hours. Then it stops and then after a few days I havetiny bumps. Then the bumps itch and then they bleed. Then I get a scab which also itches and I must scratch in my sleep because the scabs bleed. From that first itch until when it heals takes 3-4 weeks!!! It's terrible! I get about 6-8 outbreaks every summer. Its only June first and I have a few big scabs on my right arm already. One outbreak so far on the left. It stops for awhile and then comes back! In fall and winter I am fine! It must be the heat!
