Caterpillar rash laid arm on?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Caterpillar Rash: If your child has direct contact with a white-marked tussock moth caterpillar, treatment includes placing adhesive tape over the affected area and repeatedly stripping the tape off to help remove the tiny hairs, washing the area with soap and water, applying ice packs to reduce the stinging sensation, and applying a topical, low potency steroid cream.
