A member asked:

I have rashes that are spreading and wondering what they are!?

6 doctors weighed in across 2 answers

Can't tell.: Rash is a very broad topic. Dermatologists spend their whole life studying them. Really need to give us a better description of the rash - location / appearance / itchy or not, etc - so that we an kind of limit the things it could be.

Rashes: best thing to do is show a doctor your rashes and any symptoms you may have with the rash.
