Suggest Treatment For Rashes

i am a woman, 58 years old , in good health with perfect blood test results, I have 2 different rashes with 2 seperate looks and textures, 1st the one on my left front shin/raised small lumps that itch like CRAZY. They will bleed.like my skin is thin, the rash vanishes for a half day , then resurfaces after a shower/shaving my leg. Using a jock itch product thinking it is a fungus rash from gardening..seems to make it go away , but never heals completely.The second on my lower back and spreading ,only surfaces after I scratch it. I scratch because the urge is fierce,putting Triamcinolone cream 1percent no help . going on one month...yuck,

Hi,

On left leg, the rash may be contacted allergic dermatitis. Apply mild steroid cream. Take antihistaminics like cetirizine. And on the back area, the rash looks fungal... ringworm infection... apply an antifungal cream like clotrimazole cream. Take antifungal cap. Itraconazole and antihistaminic cetirizine. Avoid soap bath and improve hygiene and immunity.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
