Hello,
Your symptoms seem to be related to arthritis rash.
I suggest maintaining control of arthritis with medications.
I also suggest using anti-inflammatory medications such as Ibuprofen in case of pain.
I suggest applying Calamine lotion for local application in the area of the rash.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Dorina Gurabardhi, General & Family Physician
