How should one take care of an allergic rash?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Stepwise approach: The best approach to an allergic rash is to first identify the trigger. There are many potential triggers. The next step is relief which can include non-drowsy antihistamines and based on the severity, location and extent of the rash a variety of topical corticosteroid creams or ointments. A dermatologist or allergist can assist in this process.
