Suggest Treatment For Rash That Follows A Blood Vein On My Arm .

I have an itchy rash that follows a blood vein on my arm. Same arm that had blood drawn from a few days earlier starting at the spot where the needle was inserted. Coincidence to poison ivy? Not sure. I was in the woods a day after blood was drawn

Hi and thanks for the query,
it might be difficult to suggest a treatment without seeing the rash. This is so because treatment should be guided by the severity and type of rash. Very easy to diagnose clinically. Images could help. However, I suggest you see your primary care doctor.
