Suggest Treatment For Rashes On Face
Question: I have rashes on my face due to some reason... could be because of water change or could be because of skin light cream that I was using for sometime... someone suggested KZ soap and I have just started using it... pls suggest
Brief Answer:
It is likely to be due to an allergic reaction.
Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.
The skin rashes are likely to be due to an allergic reaction to something. Take cetirizine tablet once daily for a few days. You may use KZ soap but I do not suppose that it will help in reducing the skin rashes. It contains kojic acid which is thought to be a skin whitening agent. But there are no definite proofs that it actually works. In fact, it might be a better idea to avoid using soap on your face during this period. Using Dove might be a better idea.
If you think that it could be due to the skin cream, simply avoid using it.
Let me tell you that skin whitening is practically a myth. Do not fall for it.
Hope that helps. If you found my answer to be helpful, please close the thread with a positive review and a 5 star rating.
