Recommend Medications For Itchy Rashes

I have a skin rash. It starts on my neck and spreads down over my chest back and shoulders. It starts out itchy and ends up sore. I went to a dermitologist and he said I was having a reaction to a steroids shot. That it was working its way out of my body and infecting the hair follicles. But I noticed that this rash goes away when I start my period each month and then comes back a week or so after i my cycle is finished. The breakouts on my neck ate itchy and embarrassing. What is wrong with me????

Hello,

I should have a look at the rash area myself. To my opinion, as you say that the rash starts when your cycle is finished could be due to hormonal changes during monthly cycle. Most probably acne induced from hormones. Anyway, the photo will help resolve this puzzle. For the moment, I can only suggest to follow your doctor's recommendations.

Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
