What Does Red Rash On The Elbows Indicate?

I developed a red rash on my elbows then arms eventually to my legs also. It has been 4 weeks and steroids made it fade to a lighter red but didn t stop it I finished the steroids and now take bemedryl and cream on the rash but my dermatologist doesn t know what it is and decided not to biopsy it cause it isn t red enough anymore my doctor did blood tests for Lyme disease and other auto mine. Disease that came back normal I also have an elevated heart rate between 90 and 108. My normal is usually 68 to 72. Bp is elevated but not too bad 154/85 my usual is 102/72. Do these two symptoms mean anything to you?

Hi,

Most probably you have had an insect bite or an allergy.High BP could be due to steroids. Nothing to worry.
