Suggest Treatment For Itchy Rashes On The Face And Neck

default
Posted on Mon, 25 Sep 2017
Question: My skin has recently become very itchy and now has a rash, pretty much all over, except my face and neck. I do not know it that is from scratching or something else. I have no know allergies, use soap for my showeer that has no perfum and is made for sensitive skin and launder with a laundry soap for infants. It started out on my leg which was swollen from an injury and still is and afterward my whole body itched.

Detailed Answer:
Hi
Thanks for being at HealthcareMagic
I have gone through your complaints and there are few possibilities.
It could be either a drug rash or viral exanthem.
Have you recently started with any new medicines?
Do you have recent or present history of fever, sore throat, bodyaches, joint pains or cough?
Do you have the rash on palms and soles also?
I would recommend you to upload the photographs of the affected areas under the report section so that I can have a clearer picture of the condition and can guide you accordingly.
Regards
Dr Asmeet
