What Does It Mean to Dream About Rashes?

To dream of a skin rash represents feelings of irritation, discomfort, or embarrassment in waking life. Anxiety and frustration about a situation and not knowing how to fix it. Something that is abnormal or uncomfortable that you would like to get rid of, but are struggling to do so. A situation that is causing emotional or psychological discomfort. The rash may represent repressed emotions or unresolved issues that are causing a negative impact on your life. Alternatively, the rash may be a metaphor for something you are "itching" to fix or a situation you are having difficulty resolving. Annoyances that you feel stuck with, and that you don't have the experience or knowledge to deal with on your own. A signal that a problem needs extra attention and care, and that you should take steps to address it before it gets worse.

Consider the location on the body of the rash for additional meaning.

Example: A man dreamed of having a rash on his feet. In waking life he dropped out of university and was worried about how to reenroll. In this case the rash may have reflected his anxiety and frustration about not knowing how to fix his finances to afford University a second time so he could feel good about himself again.
