Itchy forearms with blistery sores

[HeatherandSteve]

In June of this year my forearms began to get very itchy with lumps with blisters which turned into sores, tey hae migrated to the back of my neck. Is it true that it could be a side effect of arthristis in my neck?

I've been suffering with the itchy lumps which resulted with them turning into sores it is really frustrating and annoying as well didn't think about it being possibly linked with arthritis

Hi, thanks for your post. If you are concerned about your skin, you may need to mention it to both your GP and rheumatology team. They may need to consider if any drug interactions for example.
You may need to ask for a referral to a dermatologist if you don't get any joy.

I hope you are able to find some help.

Kind regards
