Can I Take Medicine for Red Skin Rash?

Yes Sir I am Ritu Das I am 24 years old I want to talk to you about some skin problem. I have some red rash on my skin, will it be okay if I take medicine?

1 Answer

Answered on 20th Sept '24

Skin red rashes are not a rare thing and can be caused by several things such as allergies, eczema, and infections. If the rash hurts or is itchy, it's better not to self-medicate and go to a dermatologist for the right treatment. Some rashes can be made better with cool compresses or light lotions, but first, it is crucial to find the reason.

My son is 4.5 years and is having skin rashes since 1 year, in his knee, back, lower stomach and underarms. We have consulted skin specialist and applied futibact, tacroz and neoaporin ointments, but once we stop futibact the rashes return after a week and increase

Male | 4

The boy seems to have atopic dermatitis also called as atopic eczema. The care is utmost important in his case as the skin is dry and prone to rashes as well as infection. steps should be taken to keep his skin moist at all times. Start by oiling him before bath, use mild cleansers, and apply moisturizers immediately after bath so as to retain water and seal it inside his skin. The flutibact is for immediate reduction of rashes. Start using tacrolimus cream once a week to prevent further rashes. The flutibact is a steroid and antibiotic combination cream, and therefore has to be used judiciously. Please meet a pediatric dermatologist for more information regarding this problem

Hello I'm completed vaccine of ant rabies last may 22, 2024, but my cat bite me today, do I need to get vaccinated again?

Male | 15

Your rabies vaccine was completed last May, so you’re protected from getting infected by it. However, if a cat bit you today, watch out for any fever, headache or weakness that is abnormal. Seek medical attention immediately should you see any of these symptoms.

Iam getting pimples on my face iam using BETAMETHASONE VALERATE AND NEOMUCIN SKIN CREAM. BETNOVATE-N

Male | 14

You should think twice about using BETAMETHASONE VALERATE AND NEOMUCIN SKIN CREAM (BETNOVATE-N) for this. Although these ointments contain corticosteroids, which are known for reducing inflammation, they can exacerbate your acne in the long run because of steroid-induced rosacea or any other reason. Pores get blocked with oil, bacteria, and dead skin cells, forming pimples. To bring your skin back to normal, it would be wise to use a mild cleanser and an oil-free moisturizer. More importantly, avoid touching them at all costs.

There is a sudden development of a black coloured lump on my lips . Can you please give me details of this

Male | 52

Several factors can cause black lumps. It's sometimes a self-resolving harmless blood blister that happens when you accidentally bite your lip or something more serious like skin cancer. Anyway, always be alert to the piece of the lump being uncomfortable, bloody, or growing in size. It's better to seek counseling from a physician to be cautious.

Hello! I'd like to consult on a medication called Doxycycline I took 2 doses wrongly by accident (2 pills 2 times a day instead of 1 pill 2 times a day) Should I wait 24 hours and take the next dose in the morning? or should I take my next dose now? also, could I check the effectiveness of doxycycline? (I have taken doxycycline before and I'm concerned it might not be effective) Thank you!

Male | 24

It's important to use medicines the right way if you want them to work well. Too much doxycycline might give you a stomach ache, make you feel sick, or throw up. If you have taken 2 doses at once, just skip that particular time and take your next dose when it is due. Even after this drug may still be effective but not in the correct manner as before; so always consult with your doctor if doubtful about its efficacy.
