Flat itchy rashes appear and then disappear after about 15-30 minutes. Seen an allergist and derm and haven’t gotten any answers.

Rash comes and goes within 15-30 minutes and happens throughout the day. They don’t seem to leave anything behind. It’s itchy and probably about a 6 on a 1-10 scale. If I itch it, it blows up. It’s been happening since July 7th.

I’ve seen an allergist and a dermatologist both haven’t given me any answers.

The rashes only appear on my torso, chest, and neck.
I had a fungal infection back in March around my chest and then another infection in June.

Raised itchy red bumps and patches that last 10-30 minutes

So I ended up getting a fungal infection around my my mid chest area that spread down to my torso, I took oral terbinafine to clear it up. A couple weeks later I got reinfected or infected again because I stayed in swim wear too long and it happened in the same area and this time around I did two weeks of ketocanzole cream once daily.

Recently I’ve noticed that whenever I’m hot or take a shower or scratch a part of my upper body (upper body specifically) I get these red bumps and patches. I don’t know if the two have any correlation with each other but this started about a month or more after oral terbinafine and ketocanzole. These images don’t really capture how red it actually gets and I haven’t taken pictures of the worst of it.

I was able to get a derm appointment but it’s not until a month from now. I’m not worried or anything but just wondering what it might be.

It gets really bad on my back.
Also, if I don’t scratch it normally goes away but if I do it’s like all hell breaks loose.

First picture is my torso (idk I had just gotten out of the shower)
2nd neck (I scratched 1-2 times and it blew up)
Last two arms (i did rub my arm but not excessively)
