Rashes

If you bite your lip a lot, and got a cut on the inside of your lip, you best just let it heal and drink a lot of water! The water will keep the bite moist, but this only works on small bites!

A rash can be caused by an allergic reaction, a viral infection, exposure to a parasite, a chronic skin problem, some medicines, lotions, creams, and gels.

I had a allergic reaction to penicillin, i took 3 tablets of amoxicillin and the next day; my fingers swelled up and i had a rash. So about 12 to 24 hours, however, even if the drug that caused the allergic reaction has left your body, the rash and other symptoms can still stay.

It could just be poison ivy, but it could also be something much more serious, such as measles. Take this child to a doctor, soon. I don't think you get a high temperature with poison ivy. Measles is not usually much more serious, though occasionally it can be. But do take the child to a doctor.

is it embarassment or menopause? get a cloth and wet it. gently wipe off the cheek, forehead and the back of the neck. keep the cloth moist with cool, not cold water, as that will have the body overreact and flush harder. If it is a child, make sure there isn't a fever. if it continues for any length of time, contact your doctor as there may be underlying causes

Lichen planus can be treated through certain medicines available over the counter or through prescription, and also requires a lot of rest to recover. Both conventional as well as homeopathic medicines can help to treat Lichen planus effectively. In fact its proven that homeopathy is really effective in treating lichen planus.

This could be a tell-tale sign of HIV seroconversion. Typically one might experience flu-like symptoms with a prolongued fever, general malaise, bad concentration, dizzyness and a red, often non-itchy hive-like rash on the chest, back and sometimes the face and extremeties. If you develop these symptoms and feel you may bear some risk, it's a good idea to get tested for both the antibody and the virus itself. If you are in seroconversion, you may not test positive for the antibodies. Typically, antibodies develop after the body launches its initial assault.

Gonorrhea can cause a rash if left untreated (disseminated gonorrhea).

Syphilis can cause a rash in the second stage.

Reiter's syndrome, which sometimes follows chlamydia, can cause a rash.

Trichomoniasis can cause a rash in the genital area due to irritation from the infection.

While not the kind of red eruption we think of as a "rash," warts, molluscum, and herpes can be skin problems caused by STDs.

runny nose and fever are characteristic of either viral or bacterial infection. Since you mention rash, my best guess would be a bacterial infection. Some bacteria can infect the upper layer of the skin and then get absorbed in the blood stream. If the rash itches, it is most likely a bacterial infection. DONT SCRATCH. Take Ibuprofen (motrin or advil) for the fever, take cold medicine for the runny nose, purchase hydrocortisone with antibiotic ointment and CONSULT YOUR DOCTOR.

Answer Rashes are very hard to diagnose and will take a specialist to decide what is causing this rash. It could be anything from the detergent you are using in your clothing (also clothing softener during the rinse cycle) the soap you are using, or you have a food allergy or an allergy to a medication.

go and buy a topical cream for antifungal and keep the area dry and clean. Apply the cream 3x daily until gone

Antihistamines like Benadryl are the obvious solution to a problem with hives. A rash on your skin is your body's way of telling you that it's fighting something you're allergic to or something foreign on your skin. Nevertheless, try a homeopathic medicine called urtica urens first before giving antihistamines a shot. Get a 30c strength from the chemist and suck one twice a day-that should work within two or three days and might actually solve the problem. It's safe and free of any side effects.

if you are an adult and have already been exposed to chicken pox you can rule that out. the most common reason is heat rash/acne. it can happen even if you are not extremely hot, and doesn't always itch. some people just have sensitive skin. the best way to get rid of it is to try gold bond powder first. put it on your tummy everyday for a few days and see if it helps. if it doesn't and it feels like the spots are spreading or getting worse, ask a dermatologist to prescribe selenium sulfide. it is a wash that works very well for tiny acne bumps due to heat or irritation.

i heard dat the white dots can be a sign of cancer from being in the sun 2much

Rheumatoid vasculitis can cause Vasculitic neuropathy

You can, but you're better off using Silvadene cream (Silver Sulfadiazine) as it's typically used in ER's and prescribed for both 2nd and 3rd degree burns. Works well, keeps the area moist and protected, helps promote fast healing (anti-bacterial properties)

Their urine is too acidic. If you are giving your child apple juice or orange juice then water it down or don't give it to them for awhile. You can use Lanocane to help calm the soreness and redness down or, put 1 full cup of Epsom salts into tempid bath water and have your child sit in that for 20 minutes to 1/2 an hour. Epson Salts is a wonderful thing (doesn't sting) and is good for bad sunburns as well. You may have to ask the druggist where the Epson Salts are in the store. Keep it handy! It's also good for aching muscles and sore feet.

Hydrocortizone cream is safe to put on a shingles rash. You can also get prescription Lidocane from you doctor to apply.

Avoid Benadryl as it can cause the rash to worsen in some people. Also avoid Bagbalm as it causes a burning sensation.

Unfortunately I had a rash, it was from an allergic reaction. The best way is to go to the doctors find out what has caused it and then take the cream/medicine (whatever) they prescribed you. It will go away in a few days. The best thing to do it not scratch. It's hard, but the thing is if it bleeds - nasty infection, don't want that (: And also it hurts and stuff afterwards so just try not to itch. Urmmm that's all the advice I can give.

Hope you found this useful! Byeee (:

A red rash around your mouth could be rosacea, hormonal changes, an allergic reaction or a reaction to constant lip licking.

Apply vaseline at night and check with your dermatologist if it persists.

I was prescribed triamcinolone acetonide to use WITH an over the counter anti fungal cream (like clotrimazole) to cure my athlete's foot. I was getting severe, scarring fungal infections that the anti fungal creams would not cure. The Triamcinolone stops the itching and burning, as well as the swelling which allowed the anti fungal cream to work much more effectively and quicker.

Irriation from your razor, it could be time for a new one, or better shaving cream, also you could be shaving too much.

I thought that I had scabies but I'm still not quite sure, but I applied this tithe area that had the rash and within a week it went away

I've seen a few via internet searches, and I personally have had reactions to Polypropylene, so I know firsthand that it can happen. I haven't had a formal allergy test yet though.
