How To Treat A Itchy Rash On The Side Of The Hip?

I have had a rash on the side of my hip for a few days. It started out about the size of a quarter and it was a hive. It itched a lot so I scratched it and it has grown to a circular or oval shape about the size of a lemon slightly pinker and raised from the rest of my skin.

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, this could be hypersensitive reaction and some time this is self limiting seldom need medication, in my opinion just wait for some time and this would be fine soon, if not then you can try, Tab Hydroxyzine 10 mg three times in day, hope this information helps, take care.
