Are Half Moon Shaped Rashes With A Mild Burning Sensation A Cause For Concern?
Hello, I off no where I have developed 3 half moon shaped welp-like rashes on the lower end of my left arm that wasn t there when I woke this morning. A mild burning sensation is what caused me to notice them Asking is this serious enough to take a trip to the ER, or could it be something In allergic to?
Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Perhaps those are hives/urticaria. It is usually a manifestation of allergy to either food or food preservatives or may be an exaggerated reaction to an infect bite. I suggest you to take an OTC antihistamine e.g Cetrizine tablet for symptomatic relief from itching. In addition I suggest you to apply a soothing lotion e.g Calamine lotion to calm down the rashes.
Regards.
