Specializes in Internal Medicine

Causes of rash: There are many causes of a red irritated rash -- other factors that would help understand the possible cause include the pattern, does it blanch, is it raised. Common causes include rash associated with a viral illness and allergy from contact. Showing it to a doctor would help identify if this needs any treatment
