What Are Rashes?
Rashes are areas of irritated or inflamed skin that can appear red, itchy, swollen, or bumpy. They may develop due to allergies, infections, or underlying skin conditions. While many rashes are temporary and mild, some require professional diagnosis and treatment to address the root cause and prevent complications.

Frequently Asked
QUESTIONS
Rashes can be caused by allergies, irritants, infections, heat, or underlying skin conditions like eczema or psoriasis.
A dermatologist will assess your rash through a physical examination, medical history review, and, if necessary, diagnostic tests such as patch testing or skin biopsies.
Not all rashes are contagious. For example, eczema or psoriasis are not, but fungal infections or certain viral rashes can be.
Mild rashes may improve with over-the-counter creams or antihistamines, but persistent, severe, or spreading rashes often require professional evaluation.
Most rash treatments have no downtime, but avoiding irritants and following aftercare advice is crucial for effective healing.
Avoid known triggers, maintain proper skin hygiene, use gentle skincare products, and moisturise your skin to prevent dryness.
