A member asked:
I had a reaction by applying with hydrocortisone to a small rash and covering it with a band aid. now it's a rectangle shape. what an i do to help it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Tape: You are likely allergic to the glue used on the band aid, hence the rectangular shape. Applying hydrocortisone without the tape on the rash will likely do the trick.
