What is the treatment for rashes after knee surgery?
Patient: I had knee surgery on Tuesday, November 20th.  Five days after the surgery, I developed a rash above the area where the ace bandage was placed.  I went back to my doctor and they gave me a strong steroid cream.  Rash seems to be getting worse.  Any suggestions??? Doctor: Hi,  In my opinion, it could be a contact dermatitis. But it would be difficult for me to confirm the diagnosis without examining the rash. So, I recommend you to visit your Dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and to initiate the treatment.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
