BAD BODY RASH: GOOD QUESTION! I WOULD HAVE TO KNOW A FEW THINGS: HOW LONG? DOES IT ITCH? DOES THIS SOMEONE TAKE ANY MEDICATIONS? KIND OF SOAP THIS SOMEONE USES. ANY PERFUME OR COLOGNE? EXPOSED TO ANY CATS OR DOGS? WHAT KIND OF WASHING DETERGENT? WHAT KIND OF WORK DOES "SOMEONE" DO?

Not enough info to: know. This rash needs to be visualized & a history needs to be obtained in order to make an accurate diagnosis. Sometimes lab testing or biopsy is necessary.
