Could a Rash on Shoulders and Back Indicate Something Serious?

Patient's Query

There is a rash on the shoulders and entire back.

Answered by Dr. Ishmeet Kaur

A rash on the shoulders and back could be caused by several things such as allergens, irritation from clothes, or infection. Sometimes it can occur when someone sweats excessively or uses strong detergents. The rash may appear red, be itchy, or have bumps. To relieve these symptoms try using mild soap, wearing loose-fitting clothing and keeping dry. If this does not help, see a dermatologist.

Tiny spots around bum and red nappy rash like when I touch it screams

Male | 13 months

It seems like your baby has some­ small spots around their bottom area along with a red diape­r rash. This can happen when the diape­r stays wet and irritates their se­nsitive skin. Change diapers ofte­n to keep them dry. Use­ soft wipes and let the are­a air out before putting on a fresh diape­r. Also, try a mild diaper rash cream to soothe the­ irritation.

My roommate has said she had a cold sore for the last two days. And I’m a bit worried. She gave me a piece of food that she bit off of and offered me and also a drink (I didn’t drink off the straw, rather just our the cup) I’m a bit nervous, I’m not sure if she had an outbreak during those times but it was about two / three days ago. Could herpes be spread in that way? (I definitely could be uneducated but just a bit nervous)

Female | 20

Cold sores result from the herpes simplex virus spread by close contact such as kissing or sharing eating utensils. Nonetheless, passing herpes through sharing food or drinks is very unlikely. Signs may commence with a tingling sensation and itching feeling then develop into blisters on the lips or around the mouth. To avoid contracting herpes simplex virus, refrain from sharing cutlery and glasses besides washing hands often.

I got lightly scratched by a stray cat. It did draw blood. I made sure to clean ot properly and use anti-bacterial cloth. Do I need to see a doctor or are there any symptoms to be aware of?

Male | 23

Cats can scratch, and it happens. You've cleaned it properly, which is great. However, keep an eye out for signs of infection, like redness, swelling, warmth, or increasing pain near the scratch. If you notice any of these, see a doctor right away.

Mera skin oily aur wrinkles hai kya kon sa medicine use kare please guide

Male | 28

It’s crucial to treat a combination of oily and wrinkled skin with great attention. Your skin turning oily can lead to blocked pores and acne. Wrinkles can be formed from aging and your skin receiving too much sunlight. Cleansing your oily skin can be aided by using a mild cleanser and an oil-free moisturizer. For wrinkles, contemplate using products that have both retinol and hyaluronic acid. Protect your skin by putting on sunscreen when the sun is out.

A small size mole on right side of my nose. Which treatment is best to remote it. And how much cost will be charged .

Male | 35

I suggest that you visit a dermatologist and have them check out the mole on your nose. They can tell whether the mole is a benign or malignant one. However, based on the diagnosis, surgical removal or any other alternative mode of treatment may be recommended by a dermatologist. I suggest consulting a dermatologist near you for further advice. The treatment cost is determined by the recommendations and location of a particular clinic.
