First you need to determine if it truly is a rash or if its just dry skin. If its a rash, find out what KIND of rash it is (both psoriasis and excema could be described as a minor rash) - this will determine the treatment!

Fill a bag of muslim cloth with rolled oats and put it under your warm water bath tap when running your bath. This has a soothing effect and reduces itching. I suffered with eczema on my lower legs and feet for a couple of years and found the oats offered a little temporary relief. But eventually my eczema went away after having a course of cortisone injections. All the very best to you and hope you find something that works for you too.

tanning really helps this. also, salt water, or pool water. all of these things will clear it up.also, neosporin helps too. i figured that one out for myself. one day i was out of my cortizone(which also heps with itching) and i tried it, and it worked really great.

eczema take vitamin E 1000 IU a day and pop open a few and rub the vitamin oil right on the spots twice a day, after a shower or bath don't dry yourself air dry, soak in a tub of dove soap or buy some oatmeal tablets put one in your tub of water and soak in it. Aloe works well too.

Try using a good sun block product. One with a number 45 or higher. As for clearing up problem skin, try using a cleanser which is hypoallergenic. Also, pure lemon juice makes a good skin cleanser and it smellls good too. Always rinse the skin well after using a cleanser to make sure there is no residue left from the cleanser. Good luck.

Avoid dairy. One glass of milk contains hundreds of thousands of mucous cells... pizza cheese..etc...\n\nAvoid white bread...\n\nWash your face with dilluted apple cider vinegar\n\nDrink one tablespoon of apple cider vinegar three time per day.\n\nDietary changes and ACV will create proper flora internally and clean up your face externally\n\nhttp://curezone.com/blogs/m.asp?f=179&i=53\nhttp://curezone.com/blogs/m.asp?f=179&i=3\nhttp://curezone.com/blogs/m.asp?f=179&i=51  \nhttp://curezone.com/blogs/m.asp?f=179&i=37\nhttp://curezone.com/blogs/m.asp?f=179&i=27\nhttp://curezone.com/blogs/m.asp?f=179&i=21

I would recommend seeing a Doctor.  Using just any old cure recommended by people online could be a bit dangerous since you don't know what is causing the rash.

it sounds like a form of eczema.  go get some hydrocortizone cream from the pharmacy (they sell it over the counter).  it should help it clear up.  if it doesnt go away from that, you may need a stronger dose, which you can only get to a doctor.  also, since there are little heads in it, i would suggest something with a little sulfur in it.  that will help your body learn to fight it. \nbut, it may just be an allergic reaction to the soap you are using.  stop using the soap you have, and if that doesnt work, try the above suggestions.  if you have any more questions, feel free to IM or message me.  good luck

I have had these on and off for a couple of years. I was prescribed hydrocortizone cream but was not refilled my prescription. I was also developing rashes under my arms at the same time. I switched my anti-persperant from Degree to the Adidas one without aluminum and surprisingly enough it stopped both rashes after about 2 weeks. I also switched my soap from generic "sport" soap to Ivory, and that may have also helped.

I have issues with darker skin on my elbows and someone told me to cut a lemon in half and just rub my elbow in it for 10 minutes a day or so and they lightened right up, it's just one of those things skin do.  There are also skin lightening products, but they contain chemicals which would probably irritate the sensitive armpit area.

Oatmeal and baking soda bathes are supposed to be very good for skin rashes and itches.\n\nBut you'll want to take other action too. For instance, start using an allergen-free laundry detergent. From what you say, you may be allergic to the one you have. Also, check your bath soap and make sure you're not allergic to that.\n\nGood luck!

when i get spots i use pure tea tree oil on them, wait for it to dry then rub in a small amount of sudocrem.  i do this upto three times a day, and it gets rid of them in double time. but make sure you go easy with the sudocrem, apply too much and it will give you a rash. also don't rub it all over your face as this gives you a rash too. just apply it to the actual spots. hope this helps
