If you experience a rash that does not go away on its own after a few weeks, make an appointment to see one of our experts at Annexus Dermatology & Aesthetics to have it properly diagnosed and treated. Our providers may recommend a prescription topical or oral medication. Treatment of rashes often depends on avoiding the irritant. Your provider can help you determine what’s causing your rash so you don’t trigger the irritation in the future. Often, topical skin care products, soaps, laundry detergent, lotion, chemicals, or food may be to blame.
