What Is Skin Rash and Allergy?
A rash is any change in the skin’s colour, texture or feel, from redness and itching to bumps and hives. Allergies cause them when the body’s defences react strongly to something harmless like a food, drug, plant or insect sting.
Common Triggers
Contact with plants, jellyfish, sunscreen or cosmetics, new foods, medicines, heat and sweat (heat rash), infections and insect bites.
Care and Treatment for Skin Rash and Allergy
Pictures and a video call let the physician judge the rash, recommend antihistamines or skin creams, identify likely triggers and say if you need to be seen in person. Options may include antihistamines, soothing or mild steroid creams and avoiding the trigger.
- Rinse skin with clean water after contact with irritants
- Note what you ate, touched or took before it started
