Suggest Treatment For Itchy Rashes On Back

My 26 year old daughter has a spotty rash on her back. She has been to the doctor who has prescribed a steroid cream. The doctor asked her if she had been trying on any clothes lately - yes she has. Could this really be the cause of her itchy spotty rash? I have never heard of this before.

Hi Dear,

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of itchy rashes on back which seems to be due to contact dermatitis which could be due to detergent, soap, environmental factors.

Need not to worry. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor may prescribe mild corticosteroid ointment along with proper antibiotic course. As of now apply cold compresses and avoid any cosmetic product. Apply calamine lotion at back and avoid pricking rashes.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
