The only way to find out is to have a doctor evaluate the rash. There is no way to know for sure what a rash is due to unless the rash is examined and evaluated in person by a doctor. So, see your doctor and have the rash evaluated. Once a diagnosis is made, it can be treated. A dermatologist can evaluate your rash. Best of luck to you!
