Suggest Treatment For Skin Rash

I am diabetic and I have pimple looking skin rash. They seem to have a hard core and they stay around for months. If you try to get them to go away, that is almost impossible to accomplish. I have been told it is because I pick at them, but that doesn t seem to be true.

Hi,

It may be follicular eruptions. Possibly Kyrle diesease may be there. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.

The hair follicles are disturbed leading to such disease. Cap acitretin 10 mg daily for long time may be taken under doctor's supervision. Apply salicylic acid 6% cream on the lesions. Control the diabetes.

Hope this helps.

Regards.
