Have A Rash That Is Slowly Going Away. Cause And Cure?
Question: I have a rash that is slowly going away. I can only guess I noticed it after cleaning leaves in the yard.
Brief Answer:
It is a transient allergic rash: nothing serious
Detailed Answer:
Hi Ma'am, ,
Good Day to you.
I fully appreciate your concerns.
* The rash was either due to exposure to sun or insect bites, but more likely due to exposure to some allergens/irritants in the yard. Such allergic rashes are transient and may be itchy.
* No specific treatment is indicated since the rash is fading. however, if there is itching, you may take anti-allergic drug such as Levoceterizine 5mg twice daily till the rash disappears completely.
* You may also sprinkle talcum powder over the body after every bath.
Hope I have addressed your query to your satisfaction. If you have any further questions, I will be more than happy to help you.
However, if you do not have any further clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer.
Wish you a speedy recovery and good health.
Fond regards and best wishes,
Dr. (Col) R Karanwal
