The term “rash” is a general term for a wide variety of skin conditions. Any type of change that affects the skin, appearing as a red patch, blisters, or small bumps can be categorized as a rash. Most rashes are relatively harmless and easily treated with topical anti-inch cream and antihistamines that can be purchased over-the-counter.
A rash can also by a symptom of other skin disorders such as:
- Aptopic Dermatitis
- Bacterial Infections
- Contact Dermatitis
- Fungal Infections
- Or a viral infection such as shingles.
Rashes can also signal more serious illnesses. If you experience a rash that is persistent you should contact a medical professional. Dr. Daoud will properly diagnose and treat the rash and its underlying cause.
