Rash: There are so many different reasons for a rash you need to be seen by a doctor to know what is causing it.

Rash: This can't be diagnosed with the information that is available. A history, physical examination & other studies may be needed to determine cause/causes. Once accurately assessed a treatment plan can be developed.
