Q. Could you please suggest medicine for itching and rash?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

The quality of your pictures was unfortunately not very good, but decent enough to allow me to make a provisional diagnosis (attachment removed to protect patient identity). It seems that you are suffering from a form of contact allergic eczema. It is an eczema in response to an allergy to some agricultural substance or vegetation product or chemical such as a pesticide or fertilizer or some other occupational exposure substance. It is also possible that you may have an intrinsic tendency of allergies in general and react to these purported substances, in an out-of-proportion way due to that tendency. I suggest applying a potent corticosteroid cream, preferably with an antifungal combination, such as Tenovate-M (Clobetasol propionate) cream or a plain potent steroid cream or ointment such as Halox or Halovate (Halobetasol propionate) ointment to be applied twice a day over the affected areas for a duration of 15 days. Additionally, I suggest tablet Allegra (Fexofenadine) 180 mg one tablet to be taken daily in the evening around 6 to 7 PM for 10 days. Try to visit a general practitioner or a family physician and take the above treatment with consent. Use only mild soap, such as baby soap or creamy soap for washing hands. Strictly avoid exposure to any detergents, medicated soaps, harsh soaps and hand sanitizer, as they may worsen the condition. This should provide you with instant relief from your current problem. However, after your examinations are over and the condition subsides, you shall need to consult a dermatologist in person. So, further tests such as a patch test may be conducted to elucidate a suspected cause of this contact allergy.

Patch test after subsidence of the acute allergic phase.

Avoidance of exposure to medicated or harsh soaps, detergents and chemical sanitizer.
