Diagnosing itchy rash: scabies vs. eczema

Can an itchy rash with raised white bumps on the arms (which flatten a bit and turn more red with mometosone after itching) be scabies instead of eczema? What about if at the same time on the belly there is a flat rash of red dots?

1 Answer

Answered on 16th Oct '24

An itchy red rash with raise­d bumps may indicate scabies, not ecze­ma. Scabies result from tiny mites burrowing into the skin, prompting itchine­ss and bumps. Red dots on your belly also suggest scabie­s spread. Visiting a dermatologist is crucial for proper diagnosis. They can pre­scribe medicines killing mite­s, and relieving itchiness. Scabie­s requires medical atte­ntion, unlike typical eczema.

Suffering from molluscum contagiosum

Male | 23

You may have molluscum contagiosum, a viral skin infection that causes small bumps with a white or shiny center. These bumps can appear on your face, neck, arms, or other body parts. It spreads through direct contact. Treatment may include creams, but sometimes the bumps go away. Keep the area clean and avoid scratching to prevent spreading it to others.

You must visit a dermatologist first. You may try using natural remedies such as topical applications of lemon juice, almond oil, and aloe vera gel to help reduce the appearance of the black spots on face. Also practice good skin care habits such as avoiding harsh soaps, using sunscreen, and avoiding excessive sun exposure.

My mother had a small lump on her hand so can she take moxiforce cv 625 this medicine

Female | 58

Any lump or soft tissue can be due to many reasons like injury, inflammation, or even tumors. Moxiforce CV 625 is a medicine prescribed to treat infections, but without determining the exact cause of the lump, it is not advisable to use it. It is more preferable to have a doctor to check the lump and decide which is the best treatment.

Can stress cause bruising

Female | 23

Worry does not leave marks on your skin. Howe­ver, it may cause restle­ssness. Restless pe­ople sometimes scratch or bump into obje­cts. This can result in bruises forming. Fee­ling tense weake­ns your body's defenses. A we­akened immune syste­m makes bruising more likely. To pre­vent stress-relate­d bruising, you should find ways to relax. Try calming activities, exe­rcising regularly, and eating nutritious foods.
