Common Questions and Answers about Red rash skin cancer

Avatar f tn The last node that was removed had already invaded the skin/area. The red rash appeared within 3-4 weeks, mainly as red circular areas in the surgery site. The red rash quickly spread to cover 1/2 of her chest wall. The Xeloda initially seemed to help, making the rash "faint". However, it is now "active" again and beginning to harden in the surgery site area. I know this probably means it is spreading to deeper layers and not good.
Avatar n tn Skin cancer is usually a result of too much exposure to the sun. While skin cancer is the most common form of cancer, many types are both preventable and treatable. I think you should concern with the skin cancer specialist to treat and prevent your skin cancer.
Avatar f tn Hi, I'm 16 years old, and I have this red dot-rash on my left breast. It doesn't itch, and there's nothing abnormal about the breast at all, it's just there. I believe I've had it since I was around 9 or 10 years old, but I never really paid any attention to it. And now it kind of worries me...Does anyone have any advice to help me?
Avatar f tn t say what it might be but I have a red eczema looking rash on my right breast and white bumps that look like layers of skin and I had a doctor on here tell me I should have it checked out you should probably do the same. I have had this rash for a few weeks now and it does not want to go away. It worries me because I have seen a lot of articles that breast cancer could start out like an eczema looking rash. I know I need to get to the doctor and have it checked out, but have not done it yet.
Avatar f tn Pityriasis rosea is a common human skin disease which presents as numerous patches of pink or red oval rash. The rash may be accompanied by low-grade headache, fever, nausea and fatigue and sometimes by itching. No treatment is usually required. In most patients, the condition lasts only a matter of weeks or months(upto six months). If the rash persists then it will be best to get it evaluated from a dermatologist.
Avatar f tn Hi, If you have no other symptoms except this red patch, I doubt that it has anything to do with breast cancer.The skin of the breast is like skin anywhere on the body and is subject to rashes, irritations, allergic reaction to the material of a new bra, soap, lotion etc... If you notice that this problem is worsening and continues to be of concern to you, please bring it to the attention of your doctor for evaluation.You could also consult a dermatologist. Take care....
Avatar f tn t worry, this is not a sign of cancer, very rarely do I see a patient with a red itchy breast who has that rare inflamatory cancer. Just remember you are a daughter of God and don;t place your life, well being or spirit into the hands of those who would use you. Your life and the gift of your affections ideally would only go to those who deserve your love and whom you love and commit to in return.Prayers are with you.
Avatar f tn m worried about skin cancer. It is pink the same color as my skin for the most part, but when I take a shower it reddens. My mother has been telling me its just dry skin, but recently I made a dermetologist appointment... can someone please help me..
Avatar n tn Inflammatory breast cancer generally presents as a red, swollen and warm to touch breast. The skin often looks like orange peel. In general, it does not go away. Skin on the breast is like skin on any other part of the body and is subject to a variety of abnormalities, many of which are much more common than IBC. If you remain concerned, you should have your doctor evaluate again.
Avatar n tn Everytime my skin is exposed to the sun I find myself developing a small collection of pinprick spots with a red rash on both arms. This rash seems to always occur in the same place (the part of my arm near my elbow and my chest area) and are often soo itchy. I'm worried I may have a form or skin cancer as I got sunburned a few years ago. I do suffer from hayfever and I have had reactions in the past. How can I treat them, or better yet how can I avoid getting them.
Avatar n tn Today I discovered that there is a red rash that goes all around my anus. It burns quite a bit and I also noticed that it is red around my genitals but not burning just a slight itching (which was there before this started due to an external yeast infection). Unfortunately, I have been dealing with an external yeast infection for quite a while. I was at the doctors quite a few times and the last time I went she said just keep it clean and dry.
Avatar f tn it got really itchy and after I itched it it turned into a red rash. I stopped itching it. it then turned into a rough, thich, red, itchy, raised rash about the size of a dime. it is impossible to cover with makeup because it looks flakey and without makeup it is an extremely noticeable red spot. I am kind of worried, because I looked up rash, and of course got tons of pages about skin cancer. I don't think it is skin cancer. but then again it will not heal.
Avatar n tn Do not use any cosmetic products at the sites. You can apply some calamine lotion at the rash as it will help in soothing the skin. You can take some OTC oral antihistamine medications like Benadryl or Claritin and see if it helps.For mild-moderate symptoms a weak steroid may be used (e.g. hydrocortisone as dermacort), whilst more severe cases require a higher-potency steroid (e.g. clobetasol propionate, fluocinonide). These dry rashes can be exacerbated by dryness of the skin.

Avatar n tn is it at all common for there to be some discoloration on the glans penis? I have some red splotchy areas on the top portion of my glans penis. I have been diagnosed with hsv2 and at the time I was looking at my penis very closely. This was about 8 months ago but the discoloration couldve been there much longer, bc like I said I was studying my penis closely bc having hsv2 made me paranoid. The redness is more visible when I take a hot bath.
Avatar n tn They do not itch or feel scaly. Are they moles, a rash, or possibly skin cancer? Can I get them removed regardless of their being harmful to my health?
Avatar f tn s hard to say what it might be without seeing it, as it might just be bleeding under the skin(like a bruise), a rash/irritation of some type, a new mole growth, regular skin pigmentation, or something else. It doesn't mean you have cancer at all. Though if it is worrying you, talk to your mom about it and have her look at it.
Avatar n tn I have what I think is a skin rash on the top of my right breast, it has since spread to other spots on my breast as well. It started out as just red, it didnt itch, and now its turning a kind of purplish color with small reddish spots and they are somewhat raised. Could this be from a bite of some kind and can anyone help to as what it is?
725805 tn?1231049913 Hospice benefits elected after the last round of chemo nearly killed her and her cancer was deemed not curable. Last week a rash developed on her feet. It started as pin sized dots that looked like pettechia. Within 2 days she had developed progressive swelling to the feet and lower legs. The rash is now spread to all extremeties and now has large raised reddish purple spots with blisters. There is no itching, just some discomfort from the rash.
Avatar f tn I just wanted to add some more information about this type of breast cancer called “inflammatory Breast Cancer” The breast will look very swollen and red or inflamed.It progresses rapidly,often in a matter of weeks or months.
Avatar m tn but at the same time i tried to look up my symtoms online and i saw a photo of somebodys hand and it looks almost exactly like mines and it was skin cancer which actually worried me alot .....i am Scheduled to see the dermatologist Tomorrow To See Whats going on with my skin .....Any Suggestions On what It May Be?
371848 tn?1206207834 I have been to four dermatologists and although they don't agree two said I have eczema. My rash doesn't itch doesn't look dry and flaky and doesn't respond to any medication they gave me. My rash has been bothering me for nine months. Just red irritated skin that hurts when rubbed or stretched. The skin isn't always red and never at night when I am laying down. I am going to see a real dermatologist in April. This time I am loaded with photo's and tons of information.
Avatar m tn This is the one type of breast cancer where there are symptoms and this is how it is usually diagnosed. What you have posted seems more like a skin problem but I'm sure the Breast Surgeon will clear this up for you. The skin on the breast is the same as skin on any other part of the body and subject to the same problems. IF IBC is suspected then a skin biopsy could be done to prove or disprove this diagnosis.
Avatar m tn s the one they advertise as being so comfortable. Even worse, I developed a fast growing skin cancer before I developed the rash. I go in tanning beds from time to time for short periods. I thought it was odd that a mole I have on my breast suddenly changed quickly growing, turning darker and rougher yet no moles or cancers from skin exposed in the tanning bed. It's taken me months to figure out it was my bra and I am pissed!!!!!!!
1847172 tn?1319047269 Pityriasis rosea is a common human skin disease which presents as numerous patches of pink or red oval rash. The rash may be accompanied by low-grade headache, fever, nausea and fatigue and itching. Topical and oral steroids are needed. Water, sweat, and soap may cause irritation and should be avoided in the disease. Topical zinc oxide and calamine lotion are useful for pruritus. Initially, a primary plaque, called a herald patch, is seen.
