How Can A Rash On The Lower Back Be Treated?
I had a rash on my lower back so my doctor prescribed some ointment that cleared it up but a smaller version of the rash keeps popping up in other places. It is very itchy. I have some itchy bumps on my scalp too. I ve used the ointment which works well but I want it all to go away.

Hi,
I could not be able to arrive at a probable diagnosis, as you have not mentioned about the characteristics of rash. The rash could be hives as it is associated with itching. You can take an antihistamine tablet for a week. If you do not get any improvement in a week, I request you to consult your Dermatologist for further management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Dr. Siva Subramanian,
