Question 1

i have a really bad rash on my left foot that won't go away- any ideas?

Accepted Answer

Depends: Need to know what this looks like and where it is. If the skin is cracked under the toes, especially, then it is likely athlete's foot fungus. If different, then can be other dermatitis condition. See the family MD or Dermatologist if OTC meds like Tinactin (tolnaftate) do not help. Good Luck.

Question 2

i have a rash on my foot and it wont go away its on the side of my foot and i have had it for a few years now it does itch and i want it gone please help?

Accepted Answer

Need rx cream: Rash on the foot could be either athlete's foot (fungus) or dematitis.  The first needing rx strength antifungal cream and the second needing a rx steriod cream.   See a podiatrist for eval to find out which you will need.

Question 3

i have some rash on my foot that refuses to go away. i've used elocon and some ointment but its not leaving. what should i do?

Accepted Answer

Many possibilities: Could be athlete's foot, contact dermatitis, bug bites, many systemic diseases, etc.  See a podiatrist or dermatologist for more help and an exact diagnosis.  Once you know what it is, it's easier to treat.

Question 4

Accepted Answer

See your doctor: A persistent rash should be evaluated and treated by a licensed clinician. See your doctor for effective management of your rash. Best of luck.

Question 5

severe pitted edema  to knee/ no ankles. feet red.bp 119/85 pulse 95 lasix (furosemide) and compression socks not helping. have rash that wont go away, fatigue?

Accepted Answer

See Doc: Your symptoms are worrisome.  Get your kidney function and heart checked out.  Are you short of breath?  Lasix (furosemide) is not always wise to use just to remove fluid.  Your doctor must find out what is causing the edema.  Sometimes medicines can cause your symptoms.  The rash could be many things including autoimmune diseases that can affect your kidneys.  See doctor ASAP to check kidneys, heart, etc

Question 6

i've had the shingles now for two months and the rash near my ankle will not go away or heal in fact i think it's getting worse. have been on antibiot?

Accepted Answer

Not shingles: The rash of shingles should NOT persist for that long, so I tend to doubt that is your diagnosis. It's best to see an Infectious Diseases doctor who specializes in viral infections and can tell if this is truly shingles or herpes zoster. There is antiviral treatment available as well as a vaccine. I'm suspicious though it is something else. Hopefully you can see a doctor or upload the photo here.

Question 7

Accepted Answer

I would recommend: You see a foot doc or dermatologist  since we can't see the rash....

Question 8

can anyone tell me what can do for an itchy rash on foot?

Accepted Answer

Maybe fungus: Try and otc antifungal for foot fungal infection.

Question 9

please help! i have red rash on foot/ankle. could anyone help?

Accepted Answer

Rash: Rashes can be caused by a wide variety of things.  I would suspect tinea - or athlete's foot .   Your podiatrist can help with this even if it isn't tinea.
