A member asked:

If i leave a dry, pink, hardened, flaking rash from dryness that's gotten worse even with creams and aloe vera gel alone, will it go away by itself?

Need for examination: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without examining the rash. If the rash has not gone away on a couple of weeks, please see your doctor.
