What Is The Rash On The Body?
rash?????
I am 5'1 and 20 yrs old. I have a rash on my body that won't go away. just looks like little red bumps on the back of my legs, my inner thighs and some other spots that aren't as significant. I went the doctors and they said they didn't know what it was, yet they prescribed me a cream for scabies. I used it 3 full times and it still didn't go away. I also used tea tree oil for a while and its still there. some days it won't itch as bad though.

Hi,
The rash may be allergic in nature... contact allergic dermatitis or prurigo simplex. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment. I would recommend you to apply mild steroid cream and to take antihistaminic like Cetirizine tab. daily till itching is relieved. If needed, oral steroids may be cosidered in tapering dose. Avoid the contact with suspected allergens.
Hope this helps.
