What Is The Suggested Treatment For Rash On Shins?
Hi
I am just back from holiday and have a angry red rash on my shins, one more than the other, it is not itchy and wondering if it still could be prickly heat, if so what can I do to get rid of it. I have fucidin cream or should I ask my local chemist?
thanks
Linda

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it may not be infection so using antibiotic wont work here but in my opinion best would be "Beclomethasone cream" if this does not responds then oral antihistamine can be added and best would be "Tab Levocetirizine 10 mg three times in day" hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day,
