About Skin Inflammation and Rashes (Including Eczema-like rashes)
Skin inflammation, rashes, and eczema-like rashes are very common skin conditions.
Skin inflammation often causes a rash to form. Inflamed skin is usually a response from your immune system to conditions such as infections, internal diseases or conditions, or an allergic reaction. Some common causes of skin inflammation are dermatitis/eczema, psoriasis, and other skin infections. Common symptoms of skin inflammation can include mild or severe rashes.
Rashes can appear as blotches, welts, or blisters. They can be red, itchy, dry or scaly, and they can occur all over the body or just in one area. In addition, some rashes may disappear quickly, while others may never seem to go away. Most rashes are not life-threatening, however some may signal something more serious. We recommend making an appointment with a board-certified dermatologist if a rash appears.
Through Vu Pharmaceuticals, skin inflammation and rash creams are more convenient and accessible for our patients.
