Suggest Treatment For Persistent Rashes In The Waist Area
I am researching a rash that started about 5 days ago. It s situated around my belt line. There s a narrow band on my left front side with small sore near my left side the rest is red with small scab looking welts. On back left side it s large smooth blotches. No oozing. Both are painful. The front one started with the feeling of a bruised rib.
