Over the past 2 years my sister suffer from a Non-Itchy Skin Rash on her body.. Firstly it started at the abdominal area and then it spread to the arms, Legs and Chest.. the rash also doesn't have a specific form ..! Over the past two years she went to many doctors but they didn't even now the diagnosis.. she did a Blood Test, Image for the Lungs and everything is Normal.. Moreover she took a Biopsy from her back but it doesn't appear anything..

Moreover, she doesn't exposed to the sun! Does vitamin D effect ? If you please HELP us .. she is really tired from this :(

Hello,
Thanks for the query.
Neither Vit D deficiency can cause skin rash, nor its intake can decrease rash.
However application of Vit D analogues like calcipotriol can be beneficial in certain conditions like psoriasis.
These are prescription drugs and cannot be used as such.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.

Let me know if you have any other doubt.
