What Causes Symmetrical Rashes On Arms Hips & Ears?
For the second time in two weeks I have gotten a symmetrical rash on my elbows, inner arms, hips and ears. The rash is hot to touch. This morning my stomach hurt so much that I had to lay down prior to the rash appearing. Any suggestions on what it might be?
Thanks,
Debbie

Hi,
It could be either an eczematous rash or a viral exanthem. I would recommend you to apply calamine lotion on the affected areas twice daily and take antihistaminic like tablet Cetrizine once done for 8-10 days.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
