What causes rashes on hand during pregnancy?
Answered by
Likely to be dermatitis.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
I have seen the image attached. It seems to be an allergic rash- dermatitis. This can happen due to coming in contact with an irritant or clothing. This is not related to the positive TORCH test. The blood tests for fetal well being will not detect the cause of this rash.
most of such rashes do subside by applying lactocalamine lotion twice a day. Avoid scratching the area to avoid any infection. She can rub ice in the area to reduce the redness and inflammation.
In case this does not help then 1% hydrocortisone ointment applied locally will help. It is likely to subside in 7-10 days.
Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.

MD 25 years old. About a month ago. I woke up and discovered some pinkish/whiteish patches on my left cheek . I went to the derm a week later, where he gave me some Cloderm and asked me to come back in two weeks. He inspected the patches and ruled out Vitiligo due to the fact that pigment still exisited.. The Cloderm took no effect and two weeks late (today) he gave me a topical cream called ELIDEL to use twice a week. He also informed me I could have Vitiligo, but wouldnt know for sure without a biopsy . Another doctor, a family friend, thinks my skin was bleached from the Proactive Medication I used to fight acne. any thoughts? Advice?
