A rash is any change in the skin that may be accompanied by bumps, redness, itching, and other symptoms. Not all rashes require treatment, but we recommend that you have the rash evaluated. Dr. Janine Hopkins, M.D., F.A.A.D., board-certified dermatologist, offers rash treatments for men and women in Monroe, Alexandria, Shreveport, the Ark-La-Miss, Southlake, TX and the surrounding areas of Northeast Louisiana.
What is a Rash?
Coming into contact with an irritating substance may cause a reaction in your skin, such as redness, itching, and other symptoms. This type of change to the skin is known as a rash, and may be linked to:
- Cosmetics and personal hygiene products
- Allergic reactions
- Medical conditions, such as measles and chickenpox
- Side effects of medications
The term “rash” is very broad, and Dr. Hopkins will determine the exact nature of the rash. Rashes may be linked to medical conditions, such as:
- Contact dermatitis
- Psoriasis
- Eczema
- Chickenpox and measles in children
