Brief Answer:
For how long has this been going on?

Detailed Answer:
HI and thanks so much for this query.

I am so sorry to hear about this rash that you have reported. I have reviewed this information and the attached image fully. This is suggestive of a possible allergy. This is most likely contact in nature. Benadryl and cortazone are good options and will for sure address this for the time being. The most important and lagging thing to be done is the fact that we need to have the cause identified and eliminated from future exposures and rash. For this, you have to make a critical review between the onset of this rash and the products you used at that time. See what looked unusual or what areas were unfamiliar that might explain this. If you fail to identify any culprit, start by sticking to longterm friendly products and bringing any further on board one at a time.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be.
Note: Hope the answers resolves your concerns, however for further guidance of skin related queries consult our Dermatologist.Click here to book a consultation
