Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hi,

The rash could be a fungal infection or an eczema. I request you not to apply neosporin powder as it itself is an irritant.

I could not be able to arrive at a provisional diagnosis as you have not mentioned about the characteristics of the rash. You could take an antihistamine tablet for managing your symptoms.

But, ideal line of management could be initiated only by a Dermatologist after proper clinical examination.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr. Siva Subramanian, Dermatologist
