Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

I have rashes on my leg that show up and go away. I have uploaded some photos.

Please help.

Answered by Dr. Filza Hafeez

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern. I have seen the pictures attached (attachment removed to protect the patient's identity)This is because of a bacterial infection in your skin. This happens most often when the toiletries you use are not appropriate for your skin type and when you live in a hot, humid area.

Revert with the answer to assist further.

Thank you and take care.

Regards

Patient's Query

Hello doctor,

What treatment do you recommend?

Please help.

Answered by Dr. Filza Hafeez

Hello,

Welcome back to icliniq.com.

I read your query and can understand your concern.

Most OTC (over-the-counter) antibiotics are sufficient, such as Clindamycin phosphate lotion (antifungal) twice a day, although antiseptic bars and solutions should be avoided for recurrence.

I hope this helps.

Thank you and take care.

Regards.

Same symptoms don't mean you have the same problem. Consult a doctor now!
