What Could Cause Recurring Itching In Body When Levroid Is Stopped?

beginning of this year, I had motions for about 15 - 20 times due to which I had to admit in the hospital for 3 days. Later, I started getting itches and resulted in rashes on my body. I visited the doctor and she said sometimes due to some toxins still left in the body this kind of rashes will occur. She gave Levorid tablet. We continued this for 3 - 4 weeks (approx) and then, stopped and I did not get rashes after that. Recently again this issue cropped up. I visited the doctor and again she gave me Levorid. After using it may be 2 or 3 weeks, I see whenever I use the levorid tab itching is under control. I changed the doctor and he gave me Lerafil. After using 2 weeks, again I see the same issue. Whenever I am using it itching is under control.

Hello dear,

Thank you for your contact to health care magic.

I read and understand your concern.

I am Dr Arun Tank answering your concern.

Yes, rashes will be controlled with the medication given to you.

But exact cause of the rashes should be known to treat it completely.

I suggest you to take the opinion of the dermatologist which can help you to diagnose and so can treat you.

It is not observed that toxins due to diarrhoea remains in the body and can cause you rash again and again.

I suggest you to apply calamine lotion over the rash area. It helps in itching. Maintain the optimum hydration by applying perrolleum jelly it is also help full to you.

Maintain the cleanliness as it is equally important in maintaining infection and so rash.

Wearing a cotton garments seems to be help ful in some people.

I will be happy to answer your further concern on bit.ly/DrArun.

Thank you,
Dr Arun Tank
