I've got contact allergic dermatitis reaction, how can i make it heal faster?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Topical and antihist: If the rash is localized, try applying a topical steroid cream to the area and avoiding the allergen that may have caused the rash. If there is itching, an anti-histamine found over the counter may help relieve the symptoms and reaction.
