The Pseudomonas bacteria sometimes produce rashes in pool swimmers, and Pseudomonas rash might also be picked up in contaminated whirlpool baths. The rash begins one to three days after bathing in the contaminated water. The eruption is itchy and consists of flat red spots, pustules (pus bumps) or small blisters. The trunk and arms are affected, especially the area under the bathing suit, while the head and neck are spared. This rash resolves in a few days without treatment.
