I had a small read rash on my neck before my uncle s wedding where I wore a heavy artificial necklace. The rash has worsened. It has become red, extremely itchy, stinging and clear pus comes out too. It has spread all around my neck and chin . I tried using betnovate , mederma , soframycin, boroline and cutisoft but these creams either worsened it ir had no effect. It has been 1.5 weeks now. I am on a vacation and there is no dermatologist around. What do I do?
Gud morn.the symptoms u have mentioned points towards contact allergic dermatitis occurring due to allergy .hence u should even take oral anti histamine tablets to control your allergy .tablet levocetrine twice daily for 3 days can be taken .as your having pus too, it's a sign of secondary bacterial infection and so taking antibiotic like retro twice for three days also will help u. Continue renovate -g ointment and better take good diet full of iron rather avoiding some foods.cause strengthening your immunity will reduce the condition earlier .or u can even take iron tablet daily one for at least ten days.don't do itching over the rash and avoid further ornaments in future too .as your allergic to it.usually such rash takes nearly 2wks to get relieved completely so have patience and take the treatment .
