What Is Causing Allergic Rashes On Palms, Neck And Ears?
looking for information after I visited my doctor today about a (probable) allergic rash, mostly on my torso but some on my neck and ears. She gave me a kenalog shot and a round of prednisone. I have had this before, about 5 years ago, and the same treatment. What is different about this time around is that I also have soar, red blotches on my palms. When I visited the doctor, these were the most painful and after several hours since the injection, they are still painful (like bruises) but less red. It is also the most itchy. What is causing the reactions on my palms? Is it related to the other rash which I had before or something different?

these are allergies and prednisone decrease it not cure
you can start reacting to any protein at any time
may be soaps oils cooking oils application oils '
hena dyes body application powders creams shampoo
sometime food and pollen
you can control by application of anti allergic ointments and tabs
but get correlation with history or get tests to find the cause for preventing future allergies
