Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Sudden Swollen, Itchy Raised Rashes In Armpits And Groin?
I just finished mowing my lawn. It s a hot and humid day. I was wearing a cotton t shirt and shorts. I now have an swollen, itchy, raised rash under my arms and around my groin area. My wife gave me a Zyrtec for my discomfort. What could this rash be?
Your symptoms seem to be related to a heat rash. I suggest using a steroid cream for local application such as Betametasone cream. I also suggest using Cetirizine 10 mg to relieve the itching.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
