Suggest Treatment For Rash On Upper Cheek
Question: Hello,
I just needed a second opinion with a skin condition that recently appeared. Under my eyes/upper cheek I have a redness that has appeared. It appeared towards the end of July. I thought I had a sun burn but it has not gone away. Sometimes it is a brighter red or a minimal where it's barely noticeable. About 3 weeks ago I started using a facial clense but because the condition doesn't go away I have stopped using it. The area doesn't itch or burn, I don't feel any discomfort. Not sure what it is but I was told it maybe a seasonal allergies

Brief Answer:
Skin rash
Detailed Answer:
Hello there, Thanks for coming to HealthCareMagic. Thanks for uploading a picture of the rash you are suffering from. From the description you have given and based on the picture. I would say that this is seasonal in nature.
I would suggest that you use an antiinflammatory cream with 1% hydrocortisone in it for 1 or two days after thoroughly cleaning the area. If that does not help, then you will need to be seen by a Dermatologist in person.
Hope this helps,
Vinay
