Nurses: Red Spotty Rash on Arm (please help & read)!


Question: Nurses: Red Spotty Rash on Arm (please help & read)
Every now and then I get a red spotty rash on my (usually) inner forearm!. It doesn't itch or hurt!. I just notice that it appears at times then it will go away a few minutes to an hour later!. I looked on WebMD but I can't find anything that fits right!. I didn't have it today, but I took a shower (in luke warm water) and then I was drying off with a towel and noticed when I went over my arm that it was there!. The amount of rash varies!. Sometimes it's very few dots and redness but this time is the worst!. It's about 2 inches wide and the full lenth of my forearm!. I'm not allergic to anything at all!. The towel was clean and soft!. Everything was normal and this happens!. ** I do plan on going to the doctors for it but I would like to get some ideas about it now!. Thanks!!Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
I think its a minor case of excema and believe it or not you may be allergic to the soap your using or detergent of your towel!. Allergies develop at any point in life so even though you've never been allergic now you can be!. I use to get the forearm thing all through childhood and now i never get it but my 9 year old daughter gets it now!. Put a small amount of cortizone on it it works!.!.!.cortizone 10 (the red tube)!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
