How Can A Rash From The Neck To The Hairline Be Treated?
Just returned from internist who saw my wife. H e said he cannot help her as he had never seen such a neck rash in his career. It is causing her hair line to receed and leave a crown like hair line. Also her hair is beginning to also drop off. Her first doc said it was An , but another dermatologist said no. The second internist just took blood to see if it is an autoimmune disease. One endrocrinologist thought it was lupus but then ruled that out. We don t know wher to go or what type of specialist to now see. What should we now do

Hello,
As a first line management, you can apply low potency steroid creams like betamethasone for symptomatic relief. If the lesion persists, it is better to consult a dermatologist and get evaluated.
