Accepted Answer

Doctor can examine: Rashes are hard to describe in words. Usually, a doctor has to look at a rash to see what it might be. For common rashes such as eczema, mild reactions to plants or chemicals, excessive dryness, or little itchy bumps, over-the-counter Hydrocortisone 1% cream two or three times a day for 1 week, usually helps. Sometimes rashes start for no obvious reason, and then continue, especially if scratched.

Question 3

neck and chest and left side of head itch no swollen or rash help please??? sleep on furry pillows and use baby lotion and wash with dove and nivea

Accepted Answer

Skin irritation: Focalized itching without rash is rarely due to underlying organ disease.  I suspect skin irritation (sun coming through car window, the furry pillow, etc).  Try changing both the pillow and the lotion.  Rec fragrance-free non-alcohol containing lotion such as Vanicream, Eucerin  or CeraVe.  Use 2-3 times daily and always after bathing.

Question 4

what causes random rashes?

Accepted Answer

Rash: So many things cause rash. Skin is the largest organ in/on the body. To get the best diagnosis for a rash of any kind, it is recommended to have a doctor look at the rash to confirm and provide appropriate treatment based on the evaluation. Infections, irritation, allergy, medications, etc can all contribute to rash.
