My rheumatologist check my wrist due to me going crazy from the itching/he stated that it is a RA rash. Dr stated RA Does cause rashes due to the inflammation of the arteries that deliver blood to the various body organs/including the skin nerves. This know rheumatoid vasculitis.

Have you talk to RA Dr or seen a dermatologist? Could it be a allergic reaction that you don't know about?
