Rashes

Yes cats can have rashes. You should check the color of the skin to find the type of rash and if shampoo and conditioner does not work, try buying medicine. Take your cat to the vet even if condition relieves and get's better to determine the cause and prevent it from happening in the future.

It could be dry scalp try some dry scalp and dandruff shampoo they sale it at Wal-mart Perhaps your scalp is dry. If the weather is cold, it could cause irritation. Even season changes can cause irritation.

Not really. Rubbing alcohol will remove the oils which protect the skin from drying out. If you are having problems with acne, be careful when using rubbing alcohol to remove excess oil. Your skin needs some protection from the atmosphere,so completely removing all skin oil can lead to inflamion, dryness, and cracking of the skin. You are probably better off using a good soap on a regular basis to keep your skin clean. i use it for my face it clears up my skin the only thing is if you use it on a constant basis it will dry out your skin

It is used in the treatment of inflammatory skin disorders (such as eczema and psoriasis), allergic rhinitis (such as hay fever), and asthma for patients unresponsive to less potent corticosteroids. In terms of steroid strength, it is more potent than hydrocortisone, and less potent than dexamethasone.

Eczema is a skin disorder which causes ithing and redness of the skin. Allergies both environmental and food allergies can cause eczema. Stress can make eczema worse. Try and avoid soaps or detergents with strong scents.

It could be a number of things; a clogged sweat gland, an enlarged lymph node, or a fat granule. There is about a 99% chance that it is Not Cancer, so there's no need to panic. Do go to the doctor and have it checked, though, just in case it's that 1%.

No, it is not infectious. It can't be passed around from person to person. However, it is hereditary.

== == Sounds like you have an allergy to something so keep a log of what you eat and it could be hives. If it's starting to burn/itch and getting worse (starting to fill with fluid) you could have the start of shingles. Shingles usually follow nerves (it will look like a red, blistered line). My bet is you have hives. It's best to go to your doctor and be diagnosed before it gets worse. == == This sounds a lot like something I got once while working in schools. I researched forever to find the answer. The best I could come up with was pityriasis rosea. The bumps were light red and they were worst on my back and chest, but they spanned in all the other areas that were noted in the post. I know I read about steroid treatments, but those were to just help with itching and I don't think that they get rid of it. I just waited it out, but it lasted almost 2 months.

the best way is to take a bar of deoderant and rub it where you want the rash you can also rub hot sause on your body or role in poison ivy dnt do it you will get really sick

Something that has worked for me is placing a medium sized bottle of 'Witch Hazel', an astringent, in the freezer. Take it out just before it freezes and pour it into a large bowl. Put a clean washcloth in the bowl and gently squeeze some of the liquid out into the bowl. Then, gently dab the wet cloth all over the burned area, getting the entire burned area wet with the icy 'Witch Hazel' until the person feels relief. This usually keeps them from blistering, if you can get to them before they are burned too badly. If you can, use a different bottle, bowl and washcloth for each person, to prevent infections. Then, rub a thin layer of Noxema 'mentholated' cold cream over the burned area, and let it dry before they try to go to bed. Even dark skinned persons can be burned badly from the Sun, so use this on all sun burned persons. If you can burn in a house fire, you can burn in the Sun. It also helps to take an analgesic, aspirin or tylenol, before putting on the Witch Hazel. If they have already started blistering, you can still use these suggestions, but don't break or pop any of the blisters, because a really bad infection and scarring can happen. I've heard that aloe vera also helps, so I suppose you could put the liqud aloe vera in the freezer, to help bring down the temperature of the burned skin. But, always use a suncreen first, to prevent burning.

Of all the diseases ever suffered by humans, smallpox is the only one to be completely eradicated from the face of the Earth. The few known remaining samples are under heavy guard in research labs in Russia and the United States.

When the white blood cell count is less than 4,000 per cubic mm, you are said to have low white blood cell count. You have such low white blood cell count in viral infections, chlamydia infections, rickettsial infections, in malaria and typhoid fever. Incidentally they are all the infections inside your cells. White blood cells can not attack them with out killing your body cells.

A hot compress or hot towel can help reduce swelling. Neosporin or a generic anitbacterial cream/gel will fight the infection. I like Johnson&Johnson's Clean and Clear sylic acid acne treatment too - helps with the redness and swelling. Drink plenty of water, and avoid sugar as it feeds bad bacteria in your body.

Hives

Most likely scabies although they might be caused by eczema, heat rash or stress. Consult a Dermatologist.

If its just one Red spot with a white ring it could be a ringworm.

"The best precaution against chigger bites is simply taking a warm soapy bath with plenty of scrubbing as soon as possible after exposure. If you bathe at once, while the chiggers are still running over your body, you can wash them off before they bite. A bath will also remove any attached and feeding chiggers before you start to feel the itch. Warm soapy water is all that is necessary to remove and kill chiggers. There is no need, and it is rather dangerous, to apply household products such as kerosene, turpentine, ammonia, alcohol, gasoline, salt or dry cleaning fluid. Don't do it. Attached chiggers are removed by even the lightest rubbing. If you are away from civilization, you can remove attached chiggers before they do much damage by frequently rubbing down with a towel or a cloth. What can you do to alleviate suffering if these precautions fail? Lotions will relive the itching somewhat, but no substance is completely effective. The only ultimate cure is time, since there is nothing you can do to dislodge the chigger's feeding tube, the true cause of your itch. You must simply wait until your body breaks down and absorbs the foreign object. In the meantime, local anesthetics such as benzocaine, camphor-phenol and ammonium hydroxide may provide you with several hours of comfort at a stretch. Over-the-counter creams can also help. In rare cases, some people are allergic to chigger bites and require prescription medications from their doctor." this is from: http://mdc.mo.gov/nathis/arthopo/chiggers/

It sounds like a heat rash, you should check it out Benadryl will help.

If it's a somewhat noticeable bump (or lump) that has grown, it could be a ganglion cyst. They may or may not be painful, as they are usually benign accumulations of synovial fluid from the surrounding (and plentiful) joints, but as they grow, they can press on the surrounding nerves and cause discomfort. As always, if accompanied by any other symptoms of redness, heat at the "bump" site, additional swelling, severe pain, fever, chills, stiffness or numbness in the hand, or anything else unusual, you should see your doc as soon as possible, as it could be something more serious or. Ganglion cysts are most common in hands (top), but can occur around other jointed areas. I had one removed from the interior side of left elbow, just to make sure that it didn't 'tentacle' out around any of the nerves.

A rash guard top looks like a form fitting t-shirt. The rash guard can be long sleeve, short sleeve or even sleeveless. The rash guard protects surfers from the rash due to the chest and stomach rubbing against the wax on the surfboard. Rash guards have lately hit the mainstream as an ideal sunblock. Most rash guards feature a UV coating which protects from the rays of the sun. A rash guard dries quickly and you do not have the worry of reapplying sunblock every few minutes.

benadryl is what you give, whach the amount- it takes 2 days to get it out of their systems- you may see a blood rash-blood seeping from the pores of their skin- it must pass- this does not mean they will be allergic from the same thing later in life

this all depends this can be serious if it doesent come out it could eat your insides out hahahaha just messin i dont know

I recently developed a skin rash around my neck, which quickly spread to my chest area. I visited the doctor who said it was an allergic reaction, likely from a necklace or piece of jewlery. (Makes sense b/c I had recently purchased a new necklace - not real silver) My skin is naturally super sensitive. He perscribed a steriod cream called ratio-clobetasol (0.05%) Although I'm still SUPER ITCHY :(..the redness and total inflammation has gone done dramatically. Hope this helps - If you're suffering from any kind of rash that lasts longer than a day or 2, definitely go to your doctor!

Difficult to diagnose a rash without seeing it, but it sounds like it could be impetigo, especially if it has a brown or golden crust to it. It should be treated with antibiotics and is contagious. See your doctor.
