Skin problem rashes

2016-03-06 09:17:39
Today morning i noticed rashes on my body.. Like on my hand, neck & waist. These are lines like someone scratched it.. I attached the images. My room partner just moved in a week ago & he had the same problem. Do i got it from him?/should i go see dermatologist? Or any basic medication u would suggest could help??

Hi. Greetings. This may not be related to your room mate. However, this looks to be symptomatic dermographism - a type of urticaria. This can be managed by using oral antihistamines and by avoiding snatching. See a dermatologist near you for work up if the problem is chronic or troublesome. Warm regards, Dr Govind S Mittal, excel care hospital, Bangalore

Hi.This looks like Dermographic Urticaria but still needs to be investigated.U can take Tab Loratidine 10 mg in the morning and Tab Fexofenadine 180 mg at night for the time being,apply Calosoft lotion at night over the lesions.Do visit a Dermatologist for a detailed work up.
