Suggest Treatment For Allergic Skin Rash

Last year in military school we were forced to wear uniforms and I see a lot due to dehydration so I drink a lot of water. I am very hairy.So I used to put 3 times a day of deodorant on my underarms I had a bleeding rash from old spice deodorant Idk if it's the shower gel or the deodorant anymore now I'm getting a rash that smells just as awful as the first time. I want to prevent it this time. Rash is a little bit red now and smells awful. Please help me. I have changed to adidas deodorant and axe shower gel. It could be the ingredients?I don't know. Please help me.

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

I can understand your concern for allergic skin rash. There can be multiple possibilities of the red rashes and it requires a close physical examination to diagnose the exact entity of the problem.

In my view correlating with the facts you have provided it appears to be allergic dermatitis of the area.

I suggest you to meet a dermatologist to for proper therapy. In between you should avoid sun exposure and friction to the area properly. If I were your dermatologist then presumptively would have preferred to apply fluticasone with mupirocin cream. You can take an antihistamine such as loratadine for twice a day if itching is present.

Do not try to pinch, pop or squeeze the area as it may cause secondary infection of the area.

All the best
