Swimmer’s itch is a non-contagious rash that appears on your skin after swimming or wading outdoors. It is also known as cercarial dermatitis. It occurs due to a certain parasite found in fresh or salt water. When you swim in water contaminated with that parasite, it burrows into your skin and causes an allergic reaction. This can lead to the formation of rash and itching. These parasites die after a few days, and the rash disappears after a few days without any complications.
