I have a rash on my arm?

About 2 weeks ago a spot developed on my wrist. Shortly after I developed several rather itchy spots on my arm with blisters. The itching has basically gone away, but im not sure if this is shingles, scabies, a bad case if hives brought on by handling hay, or what. There was no pain but intense itching.

Hi,

Photo a bit out of focus, but I recommend having the sites checked by a local dermatologist. Sometimes a skin biopsy is needed to determine the cause of rashes such as yours. Hopefully, the cause is nothing more serious than insect bites.
