What Is The Remedy For Skin Rash On My Cheeks?

I got skin rash on my cheeks and its like the skin isnt there and its not smooth. It hurts when I tried to wash it with a face wash. whe I wash it with a face wash, I scrub the part where the rashes are and the skin fell off, not all the skin, I mean like the dried skin detached from my face. Please help.

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi. Thanks for posting your concern at HCM

I would like to keep a possibility of Dermatitis.

If i was your treating doctor i would have asked you to use a gentle cleanser instead of scrubbing it which will irritate it further.

I would have advised you to use a moisturizing cream along with application of a moderately potent steroid like fluticasone twice daily for a week which would help to resolve the dermatitis.

take care
regards
