What Causes Fever Along With Itchy Rashes On The Body?
I have a temp running from 99.5 to 101.9 and a rash on my scalp and a little on my upper body.,. The rash appears to be all over my scalp very itchy, and when I scratch it flakes come down. thought it might be dandruff. But sometimes little bubbles come down. I don t know what it is. Tried using Head and Shoulders dry scalp and am using a teatree shampoo. I saw a Doctor last week and He said it was dry skin dermatitis. He prescribed Fluocinonide. This helps with some but it still is very intence. Do you have any suggestions? Or do I need to back to the Doctor.
Fluocinonide is a potent steroid drug that is used as an anti-inflammatory drug for the treatment of many skin disorders such as dermatitis. You need to consult your doctor if there is no improvement in your condition so that he can modify the treatment for you.
