Suggest Treatment For Acne Like Rash
I recent ly developed a bothersome ,almost acne like rash on the back of my head. This coinsided with a high TGL diagnosis and was told there may be a correlation between the two. Are there any good treatments otc for this type of rash or must I wait until my TGL is back to normal. I have tried a few acne treatments but they make the rash worse. I have tried otc steroid creams and they make the zits worse. Any suggestions?

Hi Dear,
Acne like rash as per your query seems to be mainly due to systemic dysfunction of body. I would suggest you to
- Drink plenty of water and take plenty of fruits and vegetables in diet.
- Wash your back area on daily basis and keep it dry.
- Avoid itching and pricking area.
Once your systemic functions will be fine, symptoms will resolve. If condition doesn't get better in a month then consult dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment. Doctor may prescribe antibiotic like clindamycin.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
