Rash
Hi there,
I have developed a rash around both ankles which I originally thought was razed burn but its been 2 weeks now and it's not going away. It's eased off and is less red but is still very obvious. It looks like lots of red pimples, no white-heads though but some very deep, dark and raised up. These are slowly reducing in number but still leaving a red mark. The area effected is not sore, nor hot and does not itch, it's just not very pleasant to look at and I'd quite like to get rid of it. Do you think this could be an allergic reaction to something? I've been using hydrocortisone cream for the last couple of days which seems to be helping a little but not much at all. Any advice would be gratefully received.
Thank you very much,
Grace
