Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

You seem to have atopic diathesis. Asthma,dermatitis and hay fever occur in person having atopic diathesis. I recommend you to consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.

The rash may be atopic dermatitis.

I would suggest you to take a course of steroid in tapering dose. Take antihistaminics like belastine 20 mg daily. Apply tacrolimus 0.03% oint on the rash.


Avoid triggering factors also called allergens ...may be contactants,inhalants,dietary food stuffs and drugs.

Hope this helps.
