Could a Rash on Shoulders and Back Indicate Something Serious?

There is a rash on the shoulders and entire back.

1 Answer

Answered on 12th June '24

A rash on the shoulders and back could be caused by several things such as allergens, irritation from clothes, or infection. Sometimes it can occur when someone sweats excessively or uses strong detergents. The rash may appear red, be itchy, or have bumps. To relieve these symptoms try using mild soap, wearing loose-fitting clothing and keeping dry. If this does not help, see a dermatologist.

Tiny spots around bum and red nappy rash like when I touch it screams

Male | 13 months

It seems like your baby has some­ small spots around their bottom area along with a red diape­r rash. This can happen when the diape­r stays wet and irritates their se­nsitive skin. Change diapers ofte­n to keep them dry. Use­ soft wipes and let the are­a air out before putting on a fresh diape­r. Also, try a mild diaper rash cream to soothe the­ irritation.

My roommate has said she had a cold sore for the last two days. And I’m a bit worried. She gave me a piece of food that she bit off of and offered me and also a drink (I didn’t drink off the straw, rather just our the cup) I’m a bit nervous, I’m not sure if she had an outbreak during those times but it was about two / three days ago. Could herpes be spread in that way? (I definitely could be uneducated but just a bit nervous)

Female | 20

Cold sores result from the herpes simplex virus spread by close contact such as kissing or sharing eating utensils. Nonetheless, passing herpes through sharing food or drinks is very unlikely. Signs may commence with a tingling sensation and itching feeling then develop into blisters on the lips or around the mouth. To avoid contracting herpes simplex virus, refrain from sharing cutlery and glasses besides washing hands often.

I got lightly scratched by a stray cat. It did draw blood. I made sure to clean ot properly and use anti-bacterial cloth. Do I need to see a doctor or are there any symptoms to be aware of?

Male | 23

Cats can scratch, and it happens. You've cleaned it properly, which is great. However, keep an eye out for signs of infection, like redness, swelling, warmth, or increasing pain near the scratch. If you notice any of these, see a doctor right away.

I am 20 years old female. I have got open pores on cheeks for past 2 months. I am using Aloe vera gel and rose water on my face but can't see visible results. What should I do now and i have oily skin. When I go out in the sunlight my skin turns black after using sunscreen as well.

Female | 20

you can start with skincare routine for pores but treatments like microneedling will help better
