What Causes Red Rash On The Buttocks Along With Muscle Fatigue?

Red raised rash on right buttock about 4 inches vertical and 2 inches wide. The rash is also at the bottom of the small of my back. It is slightly warm to touch and the feeling associated is like muscle fatigue (as if I had just worked out). The rash also shows up a little bit on my right leg (bottom half of leg) but is only 1 inch tall. I felt an odd pain on my right side (muscle fatigue) prior to the rash appearing. I also felt pangs of muscle cramping in my right leg below my knee, which I am still feeling occasionally (goes into my ankle, and other spots of my leg where no rash is present). There is also a slight burning sensation associated with the rash if I touch it with my hands.

Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of red rash on the buttocks along with muscle fatigue . Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to many reasons like fungal infection, contact dermatitis , allergic reaction due to detergent, soap , fragrance , chemical, metal, an animal bite, or an insect sting, bacterial infection of hair follicles and lyme disease. Sometimes organ failure can also cause such symptoms .For now take benadryl twice a day , apply cold compresses and avoid any cosmetic product. Wear loose clothes. I would suggest you to avoid touching or picking rash. Maintain complete hygiene. You should consult dermatologist for proper examination. Doctor may prescribe antihistamine , corticosteroid ointment and may give adrenaline short.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
