How To Get Rid Of Itchy Rashes On My Inner Arm And Hands?

I had a complete hysterectomy on March 10. A week after that I developed a rash that was on my inner arms and hands. It progressively got worse. I was given a steroid pack and cream to use on April 11. The rash on my arms is gone for the most part but I am still itching and break out in red blotches in the most random places. Every night I go to bed praying that I will get some sleep and the itchng won t keep me awake.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Rash on hand with itching at night could be due to Scabies. Check whether any of your family member have these symptoms or not. Scabies is usually associated with lesions in family members. Kindly consult your Dermatologist and follow his/her instructions.

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