Suggest Treatment For Dermatitis
I am on several different medications including warfarin which I have been on for several years, as I have had several blood clots. I have recently broken out into a very itchy rash on my arms and legs, also I have had some reddish blotchy patches coming on my hands that last a few days then fade away. When I went to the doctors he said it was dermatitis and gave me some Locoid Lipocream to put on 3 times a day, which I did, but it just got worse and spread from my legs to my arms as well.

Hi
You seem to have developed a generalised skin rash .
Since you have been prescribed application of topical steroid lotion but still the rash is worsening ,I would suggest that you should see your treating doctor again for proper examination .
Taking oral antihistamines will help .
