What Is The Treatment For Skin Rash?
i have recently given birth to a baby. during pregnancy i developed rashes on my arms (they dont itch). i had asked my gynae what i should do about it but she just asked me to wait and said they will subside on their own. but i am still little worried as it looks really bad! Can u suggest something?

Hi.
As per your case history you are having allergic dermatitis.
My treatment advice is –
1. Avoid using any new products like soap or perfume.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic plus steroid cream like fusiderm-B cream twice daily on it.
3. Take an antihistamine like levocetirizine for 7-10days .
4. Other treatment options are oral steroid and hydroxyzine given only after consulting a dermatologist.
Thanks.
