Rash on butt?: Not sure what you are asking. Are you asking about a rash that comes and goes? Agent orange has been associated with some skin problems. If you were exposed during vietnam, it's possible you have problems due to that. If you have va benefits, you should use them. Wikipedia has a nice entry on agent orange: http://en.Wikipedia.Org/wiki/agent_orange.
