Suggest Remedies For Rashes On The Wrists And Torso

I have a light rash, in 2-4 splotches, on the outside of both wrists and the back of both hands (in almost exactly the same spots from one hand to the other). There are no other spots on my body. They itch slightly, more sometimes than others. No open fluids coming out of them. This has been for around three weeks, with no occurrence ever before. I ve tried neo-sporum and an iodine based ointment, but neither changed the way they look. They have seemed to look a little better then a little worse. I don t think I was in contact with poison ivy/oak, but I do pull my own weeds. Any suggestions?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, it could be hypersensitivity reaction and it can be well managed with oral anti-histamine like Tab Levocetirizine 10 mg three times in day, it is also advisable to get done the routine blood test and urine test just to rule out some systemic disease, the symptoms may be due to age and gender related and it is not being given here hope this information helps.
