Suggest Treatment For Persistent Rash On Buttocks

default
Posted on Fri, 17 Jun 2016
Question: I have a rash/welts on my buttocks that has been there for a few weeks now. I have tried anti-biotic creams and ointments, but nothing has worked. It does not appear to be spreading. It is red, itches a little, but uncomfortable. I do not have a clue what it is. Please advise.
