See a doctor or call: In and show a picture to the HealthTap doctors. The dermatologists I know always say if there is a rash, you have to see it to make a diagnosis. Since rashes are very common and non specific, you need a doctor to look at it, possibly feel it, examine the rest of you and take a history. Then, after you have a diagnosis, a treatment plan can be made. Best wishes!
