Can stress give you a rash?

Answer by  carm3llo (55)

Stress has been linked to all sorts of bizarre symptoms and behaviors. While it may be difficult for a doctor to pinpoint stress as the culprit, it certainly could be.

It sure can. Any thing that causes your body to change can cause a rash. Your whole body feels the pain of stress, so you can get a rash, because you are sweating. Sweat can give you as rash as well. So I guess it stands to reason it can give you a rash.

Yes, stress can make you break out in red bumps or make your skin appear blotchy. See a dermatologist for topical creams that should help.

Most definitely stress can cause a rash. The rash can be hives, it can cause a regular rash that itches. You need to figure out what you are stressed about. The mind and body are totally inter-related.
