Hello,
Thanks for the query.
This rash can be an allergic contact dermatitis. Please take an anti histamine tablet like avil.
Apply some mild steroid lotion like hydrocortisone lotion. This will give you immediate relief. Please upload a photograph of the lesion. It will help me in giving a closer diagnosis. Waiting for your response. Thank you.
