What Causes Outbreak Of Red Rashes On Legs And Ankles Along With Swelling?
Hi I was working outside in the yard last summer. I had on shorts and was working with some chemicals for my patio . The next day I notice that my skin on my legs were breaking out in red. A couple of weeks later I started getting swelling in the legs and ankles. I was given some tropical cream to use and it didn t do the job, so I went back and the doctor gave me some steroids . The rash is finally clearing up after 1 year, but it has red marks on the skin and dark around my ankles. I DON T know what I can use to clear up the redness.
HI Well come to HCM I really appreciate your concern, if the symptoms improved but left the mark )Scars) then this is nothing to worry because with the time it will be fine no need to apply anything, just be patience hope this information helps.
