Hello,
Thanks for posting your query.
You have provided with a very short description regarding your problem.
Before commenting on the diagnosis and the treatment options, I would like you to answer the following questions

1. Has the rash spread from its original place of origin?
2. do you notice any fluid filled boils or vesicles?
3. do you see some lesions improving and some worsening at the same time?
4. how long has it been since the rash has first appeared?
5. What is the color and size of the rash? Any associated itching or fever?
6. please attach a good quality picture of the rash on the right hand side of the query page.

Awaiting your response

Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
