Itchy Rash On Forearms, No Change In Routine, Had Spray Painted. Help?
Hi Stephen, I recently developed an itchy rash on both my forearms. I have not ate or drank anything out of the ordinary recently, and I am not on any type of medication . I did however use spray paint whilst restoring an old bicycle frame. Any information or help would be greatly appreciated. Kind regards. Lorcan .

Hi,
This itchy rash on your forearm could be due to irritant reaction to the paint that you came in contact with. To treat the same, you might need to take oral antiallergic like cetirizine along with application of a steroid cream.
I would advise you to visit a doctor, so that appropriate diagnosis based treatment could be started.
Hope that answers your query. Take care.
