If a rash really bothers you, go see your doctor. Period. It doesn't matter if it's a common skin problem, or other people aren't concerned about it. You're the one who has to live with your skin, so if you want to talk to a doctor, do it.





Even simple or easily treated rashes can cause an immense amount of frustration if you don't know what to do about them.

Imagine not knowing you have athlete's foot. You may be able to tolerate itching and burning skin for a few days or weeks, but you will probably reach the point that it drives you crazy. The solution may be a simple over-the-counter skin cream, but if you don't know that, the cream doesn't do you any good.


Rule #2 - Rash Time


Generally, the longer you've had a rash, the more likely you need to see a doctor if you're concerned about it. Deciding if that mole you've had on your skin for the past twenty years is looking cancerous or not is something you want an expert to do.





Most of the time a rash that has been present for a couple of days will go away on its own. Warning signs that should send you to the doctor sooner rather than later are pain, rapid swelling causing shortness of breath, bleeding blisters in the mouth or eyes, skin that is rapidly turning dusky or black, and large amounts of skin peeling in sheets. As you can see, using rash rule #1 of frustration will get you to the right place.





Rule #3 - Previous Experience With Rash


If you've had the same rash before, it's probably the same diagnosis. This may sound over-simplified, but many people think that because a rash comes back, it wasn't diagnosed correctly. Actually, many rashes aren't necessarily cured, they are controlled. Rashes such as acne, eczema, atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, psoriasis, hives, and rosacea can have a waxing and waning course depending on many factors. The best idea is to educate yourself about a rash you've been diagnosed with so you know what to expect in the future. You may be surprised to find out you need to continue some type of treatment to keep it under control.





Rule #4 - Rash Likeness


If you have a rash that looks just like the picture of ringworm, there's a good chance you have ringworm. Of course, like all the other rules, except #1, there are exceptions. Sometimes you can't find a picture or description that exactly matches your skin symptoms. Sometimes you can't decide between two or three choices. Unless you have any of the warning signs from rule #2, narrow your choices down as far as you can. Then, educate yourself about the treatments for each choice. You may find that the treatments are the same. Remember, if in doubt, return to rule #1."|||you might have developed excema. That is what happened to me. I would see a doctor because the only thing that can help excema is a prescription cream.|||go to the doctors =]|||This could be shingles, See a Doctor. Creams won't work.
