Suggest remedy for itchy red burning rashes
Patient: Hi Dr. Andrew. My name is Matthew and I am suffering from a skin condition sporadically for 2 weeks now. It s an outbreak of resurging itchy bumps all over the body that started with red burning rashes on the underarms and upper chest/neck area after I used a new deodorant. Now it s very itchy and pops up anywhere. I tried rubbing ice and even applied boric powder mixed with a mild talc over the infected regions. The itch would persist but the bumps would go away overnight only to pop up again next morning on newer areas. Will a topical cream do the trick? Doctor: Hello,   I feel that you are suffering from contact dermatitis. In that case, you should find the probable cause for the allergy and avoid that. But, according to me, you must visit your Dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis and to initiate proper treatment.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
