What Causes Outbreak Of Itchy Rashes On Back, Abdomen And Neck?
We have been pulling up some old floors in our kitchen to replace with tile for a few days. My wife is now experiencing a rash that is on her back, stomach, neck, and lips which is itching and irritating. Could it have something to do with pulling up the floor or something else entirely. She is not taking any medications and has never been allergic to anything
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of outbreak of itchy rashes on back, abdomen and neck. Well the symptoms you mention in query can occur due to may reasons like contact dermatitis , allergic reaction due to detergent, soap , fragrance , chemical, metal such as in jewelry, poison oak or ivy, an animal bite, or an insect sting and lyme disease. Need not to worry. Avoid touching or pricking rashes. I would suggest you to consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor may prescribe antihistamine , corticosteroid ointment and may give adrenaline short . For now take benadryl twice a day , apply cold compresses and avoid any cosmetic product
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best wishes, Dr. Harry Maheshwari
