Can Acupressure Treat Recurring Itchy Rash On The Upper Part Of The Body?
I have recently acquired a rash on my upper extremities and torso and went to the doctor and was given a week of prednisone. The rash went away but after 3 days off the medication is now coming back. It is very itchy and is spreading. Will acupressure help me?
** 1. since rash is recurring, make sure to check with Dermatologist for further investigation and examination. 2. since persistent [chronic] urticarial tends to comes and goes thus make sure that common stimuli like heat, cold, menstrual periods, stress, or emotion may make the rash flare up worse than usual. 3. steroids is not a usual treatment due to side effects related with them, thus anti histamine tablet orally and calamine lotion for local application is suitable 4. since the site involved is locally thus contact allergic dermatitis and/or lichen simplex could be possibility. 5. Acupuncture is based on belief that fluids flow through channels and inserting tiny needles open the channels, allowing fluids to flow better thereby might decrease pain and improve healing. Always see a caregiver for acupuncture. Do not try to give this treatment to yourself.
