I have a rash that started on my abdomen just below my belly button it started as small itchy rash with red patchy skin, it now has spread to the size of a tennis ball, skin shed off like a blister or sunburn then the area began to weep like a blister. Thought it was maybe ringworm so I tried tinactin on the rash I maintained for about two weeks but saw no improvement the rash wash very itchy found it difficult to keep from scratching. I used some cortizone lotion on the area which helped with the itch, then the area scaled over and crusted. Last night went to sleep with headache and what might have been a light fever. Now I also have a rash running up my lower back and spine. It is only mildly itchy but something is going on and I would like a suggestion of what these symptoms may be,
HI Well come to HCM Viral infection of skin need to be ruled out because chances of this is more if this is the viral infection then this may not be treated with any steroid, but could be managed with some soothing agent, and the best way is "Diphenhydramine lotion" in case of skin lesion the only easy way to diagnose the disease is clinical examination, if this symptoms does not improved then this may need clinical observation, hope this information helps, have a nice day.
