A member asked:

I practice veterinary medicine and come in contact with a lot of zoonose diseases. recently i started experiencing localised rashes. ideas?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Contact/irritant: Zoonoses, for those who don't know, are animal diseases that can be transmitted to humans. This doesn't sound like a zoonosis. It sounds like you're coming in contact with an allergen or direct skin irritant, and you'll have to do some detective work to uncover the culprit. If you let a dermatologist have a look, he/she may be able to determine the cause just by its appearance & distribution.
