Hi XXXXX
Thanks for your query.
It would have been better if you have uploaded the picture of rash.
Is the rash localized or spreading?
Is there any discharge or ulcer over it?
Do you have diabetes mellitus ?
Is it associated with muscle pain or fever?
It seems to be allergic dermatitis , you should take antiallargic medications and calamine lotion after consulting you dermatologist.
Waiting for you follow up.
