Hi, i have a rash on the left side of my back, the rash has been getting bigger with more pain. I have been using a harness at work, in construction, and it sits around my back. What can i do to see if this is what is causing it and to get rid of of it.

As it is on one side and associated with pain, it could be Shingles. Do consult your dermatologist to come to a proper diagnosis.
