What else besides benadryl and zyrtec will reduce rashes?
Patient: i am severely itchy on my legs, arms, back, and stomach. I get a rash from itching so bad and the sores tend to bleed sometimes. I have tried zyrtec, and benadryl, i have been treated for scabies twice and after each treatment i have gotten worse. I have been to 2 doctors and neither one know what is wrong. Doctor: HiThank you for asking HCMFor itching you can apply soothing lotions like calamine lotion. If it is allergic rash antihistamines like cetirizine (zyrtec) or benadryl might give relief.Some cases corticosteroids will be necessary. First your condition should be diagnosed.Approach a dermatologist for that. If not scabies it can be psoriatic,or fungal urticarial etc.All have to be ruled out.Let me know if you have any further query.
