Odd itchiness

Everytime I sweat I get really itchy on my back and chest. I have no idea why. I'm fairly healthy (walk loads, do cruches, press-ups, sport etc.) but for the last few weeks everytime I sweat on my chest/back it goes reddish and becomes incredibly itchy (as in I have to stop whatever I'm doing and wait till I stop sweating).

Any ideas what it could be?

I'm gonna call a GP soonish but was wondering if anyone's had this on here?

(and yes I do shower!)

It's winter time! Your skin could be drying out. After you get out of the shower, towel dry. As soon as you're done drying yourself, lightly apply some moisturizer. After a shower or two worth of regular lotioning, the itchiness should go away.

You're allergic to sweat?

does it more prickly rather than itchy? if so its just that u have dry skin, and like rusty said after u shower just use some moisturiser, should help :smile:
