Suggest Remedy For Non Itchy Rash On Upper Buttocks
28/F: I have had a chronic non-itchy rash for years on my upper buttocks. It is at times scaley/peeling but has always been there. It also seems to flare up the sides of my breasts, though not as bad. I ve had this for almost as long as I can remember and it has never gone away, faded at times. Any suggestions other than hydrocotisone cream?
Need not to worry. I would suggest you to keep your skin clean and dry, protect it from sun. You should apply only petroleum jelly and take antihistamine like Benadryl twice a day. Avoid touching or pricking rashes. If condition doesn't get well then consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may order certain test like skin patch test, blood test, allergy test and take history to rule out the side effects of certain drug, and start treatment accordingly.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
