Suggest Treatment For Red Rashes On Lower Part Of Body
Question: I have a leg and lower body rash, it's almost invisible and feels like a sunburn.
Brief Answer:
Acute dermatitis
Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns
You have had a fine red rash on the lower part of your body that feels like a low grade sunburn. this could be a low grade allergic reaction to something either in your diet, medication or from something touching your skin like detergents, fabric softeners or animal dander.
Since the area affected is so large using creams is not practical. I would recommend seeing your medical provider and possible use oral steroids for 1-2 weeks.
I hope I answered your question. Please contact us again if you have any additional questions
