Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
It seems to be a skin infection. Please mention whether you have pain while touching and send a clearer picture of both cheeks. Please mention whether you have any other symptoms, such as fever.
I hope this helps.
Thank you.
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
Thank you for your reply.
I have rashes for ten days. Initially, it started as red dots in some areas with one or two spots. Later, it got spread. I got three stages in this infection, and I am attaching a picture of it. I had a fever and consulted a doctor nearby. The doctor told me that it was due to exposure to dew. She told me to apply aloe vera or any calamine-related ointment. But I am waiting for your reply.
Please help.
Thank you.
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
It looks like dry eczema. It can also be a fungal infection. As you have consulted the doctor already, you can try to treat dryness first, and if there is no improvement, then you can take antifungals. You can use Polyglycerylmethacrylate and Propylene glycol cream three to six times a day. There is a high chance for you to improve. Please let me know if there is no improvement in the next three to four days.
I hope this helps.
Thank you.
