How Can Leg Rashes With Itching And Bleeding Be Treated?
I have a red rash on my lower legs and my feet and ankles and seems to be working its way up my legs but not as aggressive as my feet, shins, and lower legs. It itches and has been coming to a small head and bleeds when scratched. Some are raised and some are flat. Can you tell me what this is and what do you recommend for medication?

Hello,
You seem to have an eczematous skin condition. I suggest you use a moisturizer and a moderately potent topical steroid cream e.g. Triamcinolone Acetonide cream. In addition, I suggest you take an oral antihistamine e.g. Cetirizine.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
