Specializes in Dermatology

Unknown Rash: Itching can be caused by many things-- allergies, yeast infections, fungal infections, etc. Red spots can be caused by many things-- allergies, hives, yeast infections, etc. It can be treated so that it goes away if it is diagnosed properly. It would be best if you saw a professional to determine what is causing this rash.
