Skin Rash

Skin Rash any eruption, changes in colour or texture of the skin developed due to various reasons. Often, the cause of a rash can be determined from its visible characteristics and other symptoms. The common causes are: contact to dyes and other chemicals found in clothing, elastic and rubber products, cosmetics, feminine deodorants, medications, or insect bites that cause allergic reactions. Several diseases, including measles may cause rashes. Rash prevention is preferred to treatment. Avoiding contact with clothing, cosmetics, deodorants, etc that may cause a rash is the best preventive measure. Washing thoroughly with soap and water may remove chemicals on the skin and is particularly important with materials like cement dust. [Md Shahidullah]
