Itchy spots and rashes that never heal right

[Buhle]

Skin acting up in weird ways, spots come and go. one day it’s red patches. Next day it’s dry itchy areas, then they fade and show again somewhere else. I can’t tell if it’s some fungus, allergy, or just stress. tried random creams, soaps, even cut some food but nothing stays fixed.

Symptoms:
Rashes or bumps
Dark spots showing up
Dry flaky skin
Itch that comes and goes

Causes Maybe:
Fungus, bacteria, viral stuff
Eczema or psoriasis
Allergy from soap or food

What I tried / What ppl use:
Antifungal cream, Antibacterial cream
Steroid cream when it swells bad
Antihistamine when it itches too much
Basic moisturizer for cracks

Care:
Wash but not harsh soap
Keep it dry
Drink water eat decent

Natural things:
Aloe vera gel
Turmeric paste
Coconut oil rub
Tea tree oil dab

Doctor time:
If it spreads more
If it keeps coming back no matter what

Sounds almost like what i been dealing with. mine started small on the arm then moved to chest and neck. i thought it was just dryness too but creams barely touch it. antifungal helped a bit then boom it’s back again. Some days it feels like skin just burning under the surface. doc told me could be mix of allergy and fungal together. i been switching detergents, keeping area dry, even tried tea tree but not full fix. only thing that slowed it down was proper antifungal tabs not just cream. you ever had it checked with skin scrap test or blood work?

I deal with the same kind of skin mess man it shows up out of nowhere then just shifts places like one day it’s my arms then next it’s chest or back. I also went through the creams and soaps and honestly it only calms it for a bit then returns. Coconut oil helped when it was dry but made it worse when it was more red and swollen. Antihistamine takes the itch edge off but doesn’t stop it from coming back. Feels like half the time it’s body reacting to stress or food but hard to pin down. Do yours flare more in certain seasons or just random all year?

Last month I got these strange marks on my skin. First rough patches, then next day some dark spots, later it turned itchy and flaky. I tried changing detergent, using different cream, even skipped certain foods but it keeps shifting places. Sometimes it eases for days then suddenly appears again on another part. natural stuff like turmeric paste or tea tree dab calmed it for a while but never fully gone.
Does anyone else get these moving skin issues that don’t settle in one place?
