Rashes

A red rash on the hands/feet may be eczema. If you get the rash after taking a shower or a bath, it could be a heat rash. After taking a bath/shower, if you do not dry your skin properly you can get red, sore and rashy skin. Use some E45cream, or some soft paraffin and the rash should be gone within 2-3 days. If the rash starts to spread, or you feel concerned about it, see your GP.

I was born with chronic eczema and was prescribed with Elocon at a very young age. I am now 20 year-old and can honestly say that my skin IS thin. Sometimes I even get this ripping pain on my face and chest. When I wear sunglasses the area around my nose that holds up the glasses will become bruised for a few days where as a normal person will only have it for less than an hour.

However I have been trying to avoid using Elocon as much as I can for about a year now and can say that my skin is becoming to thicken, and the ripping pain have dissapeared.

Red blotches on the skin that are not bumpy or itchy could be any number of things. It could be an allergic reaction to something such as a new detergent or soap. It could also be irritation from clothing. You should see your doctor if it does not clear up.

To prevent prickly heat ,try not to shower or bathe in hot water directly after exercise;ie game of squash.Let your body cool down somewhat first.It is caused by the skin trapping perspiration under the skin.To treat prickly heat buy a topical lotion(inexpensive)from drugstore or chemist.Do not scratch,as this will only make it itch more.

Yes. It will follow a nerve. As you must know shingles usually are brought on by stress so it's important you seek out professional help to try and lower your stress level or you could have more attacks of shingles. It is also connected to chicken pox. Shingles is very painful, but the good news is there is medication that will help the pain and the time period of shingles is not as long. Some people use to have it for a year or more. Please see your doctor and have him/her explain it all to you and they will give you medications for it. Good luck Marcy

chemicals released by the injured tissue cells and leukocytes cause the VASODILATION of the arterioles in the injured area and cause the local hyperemia to form accounting for the redness and heat.

One treatment is medicated eyedrops (steroid or other) in the affected eye. Specific antiviral medications must be given if early enough. Sometimes pills are given. Definitely go to see an eye doctor!

If a baby oil has a fragrance it can cause irritation, because my child was allergic to all fragrances when she was a child. So if anything had a scent she would break out in a rash, eventually she outgrew it

Red lines under the skin can indicate a serious problem. These are commonly signs of blood poisoning and they show the progression of infection from the source into other parts of your body.

When you get a rash behind the ears and on one side of the cheek.

no, it is not a fungicide. It is a antibacterial

The boy is having an allergic reaction.....are you serious...call poison control or 911 and take to hospital....now

The CDC reports that about 90% of all adults are immune to chicken pox.

The virus can be spread only by the infected person and is contagious from just before the rash breaks out until the blisters are scabbed over ( 4 to 7 days ), after exposure 10-21 days pass before symptoms begin.

Doctors recommend keeping children with chicken pox out of school for about a week.

It is not necessary for you to stay home from work if you have been immunized or have had them in the past, only the infected people within the above stated time period are contagious.

At the first sign of inflammation most men who are sexually active become concerned about the possibility that they have contracted an STI. Fortunately, these problems are often created by a common skin condition or irritation that causes a rash, soreness, itching or burning. Keeping the area clean and dry will clear up the irritation and prevent it from reoccurring.

Prolonged sexual contact (including masturbation) can also result in friction sores and/or burns. Using a good lubricant will reduce the possibility of this type of inflammation.

If the rash or spots develop into open sores, blisters or any skin condition that "weeps" fluid or puss, or if you are uncertain about the cause of the condition, you need to be seen by your physician or health care provider.

Tiny red blood marks on your body can be a sign of serious disease. Contact your health care provider right away for advice specific to your situation.

The rashes last until your skin has a chance to calm down. This can be helped with drinking plenty of water, taking antihistamines and rest. Typically, in my experience they can last 1 - 5 days.

Contact dermatitis-irritation of the skin caused by contact with a foreign substance. Substances that cause contact dermatitis in many people include "poisonous" plants such as poison ivy, certain foods, some metals, cleaning solutions, detergents, cosmetics, perfumes, industrial chemicals, and latex rubber.

Infection or allergy to something applied to the skin after the cut.

I had Fifth disease when I was, oddly enough, in the fifth grade. It's just a virus with symptoms that include a rash (I remember it was on my face) and I think a fever and it lasts a couple of weeks or so. I got over it with no problems, as I think most kids do.

Not itchy Rashes Are often caused by skin contact with allergens, like new soap; or allergic Reactions to Foods. Some rashes are caused by harmless viruses, for example some people get a rash whenever they get a cold.

It's most likely panty rash. Try wearing looser panties (if you're a female) or, looser undies (if you're male).

A little bit of Bacitractin or Triple Antibiotic Ointment should help it go away fast. Think of it as the adult equivalent to diaper rash.

It seems that you should use a treatment that you would use for poison ivy. There are over the counter medicines (OTC) in drugstores. A home remedy is a paste made with baking soda and water. It should not be covered but left to dry. Repeat if necessary.

I do not have an answer, but I have the same thing. Last night I noticed about 10 miniscule (Sp?) - Tiny, red bumps that did not itch at all. About the diameter of a needle head, on my upper left breast. This morning they are all scabbed over, like someone gently stebbed my skin with the end of a exacto knife... lol.. What the heck ???

Doctors do not know how eczema starts other than it often is a result of heredity and environmental factors. While some people grow out of it as they become older, others have it for the rest of their life.
