Rash and Itch

Healthy skin is a natural barrier to protect you from the outside environment. Rash can be caused by contact with an allergen, like poison ivy, or a substance that irritates your skin, like the astringent you use on the face. It can be due to a viral, fungal, or bacterial infection. Sometimes a new medication can induce a rash. Rash and itch can also be a sign of your underlying medical health. Having the correct diagnosis and receiving the appropriate treatment are important. At our dermatology practice, we look forward to help you make a diagnosis and start the treatment for your rash and itch.
