I have a rash on my stomach and back all over and I don't know what it could be from. It itches a little but not much.Its more ugly then anything. How can I get rid of it soon??

Have you gone to your doctor?

Is this recent? Has this ever happened before?

You really need to see your doctor, determine if there's something wrong, and then go from there.

Until then, you could try soaking in a tub with epsom salts, maybe put some calamine lotion on to stop the itching.

Hello Rosebud,

It could be many different things that has caused this rash, from laundry detergent to a new kind of bar soap, to heat, to dry skin, to lotion, etc...

How long have you had this rash?

If you have had it for a little while, then I would make an apointment with your family Doctor. If you haven't had it for more than a day, then I would wait one more day to see if it is getting any better. The fact that you mentioned that it was more ugly than anything, shows me that perhaps it's just an irritation that will soon subside.

If it does get worse by touch and sight, then go in to your Doc, just for your own piece of mind.

Good luck.

Have you used any new soaps? Laundry detergent? Perfumes?
