What Does A Rash On The Back Be Treated?

On Monday I noticed a 2 linear rash on my back that I haven t been able to explain. Its not very itchy but burns at times - I believe because it rubs against my bra (sorry) Ive tried using cortisone but it seems the same. any other recommendations or do you recommend visiting my doctor ?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello, my name is Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi. I understand your concern.
I think that your symptoms are related to atopic ekzema.
Atopic eczema can be treated with these medications:
1)creams and ointments containing the steroid hydrocortisone.These products may help control the itching, swelling, and redness
2)antibiotics (to treat infected skin) 3)antihistamines (to help control itching).
4)Apply coconut oil
5)Apply jojoba oil
Hope my answer was helpful, if you have any other questions I'll be glad to help, thanks!
