Some times it will go and again comes. The color changes from red to brown and i feel its similar to capillaritis. 2months back I had applied Manexil(Minoxidil 5%) on my skin and does it cause any prob like this? I feel a burning sensation, a little pain also in the effected area and it increases in day time especially hot time. Night do not feel anything. Hope you can give advice in this case.

Granuloma annulare is a chronic disease consisting of a background-color: #dae8f4'>rash with reddish bumps arranged in a circle or ring. Usually it is asymptomatic but due to cosmetic disfigurement topical or oral steroids may be needed. I sincerely advise you to consult a dermatologist and get it ruled out.

after this <span style = '<span style = 'background-color: #dae8f4'>back</span>ground-color: #dae8f4'>rash</span> went away i started to get the same kind of <span style = '<span style = 'background-color: #dae8f4'>back</span>ground-color: #dae8f4'>rash</span> on my <span style = 'background-color: #dae8f4'>leg</span>s and arms, this <span style = '<span style = 'background-color: #dae8f4'>back</span>ground-color: #dae8f4'>rash</span> presents itself like tiny patches of skin that i just really really background-color: #dae8f4'>itchy. there are a few places where this background-color: #dae8f4'>rash has started to heal and it just kinda stays as a red dot on my skin for a while. i got tested about 2 weeks ago and i came out clean for everything minus a blood test but that is only because no one was there to take blood. i am wondering if these are anything i should be worried about.
The question I have is what are some possible reasons I could be having additional <span style = '<span style = 'background-color: #dae8f4'>back</span>ground-color: #dae8f4'>rash</span> continuing to spread on both <span style = 'background-color: #dae8f4'>leg</span>s?

It is in a bout 5 different spots including both legs and my groin. The lymph nodes in my groin have also felt enlarged this whole time, as my body has been fighting all this off. Any thoughts or advice would be greatly appreciated!
It appears on my knees and ankles mostly but can also be seen on <span style = 'background-color: #dae8f4'>leg</span>s and feet. It's raised red spots which appear to have white around them. It has come back every year for about 6 years. I live in Ireland so the climate can get warm but not very warm and not very often. When i get to the doctor it has disappeared. Any suggestions would be gratefully received.
Hi There is a common skin condition called hives or urticaria, which causes red and sometimes background-color: #dae8f4'>itchy bumps on your skin. Hives can occur anywhere on the body such as the trunk, arms, and legs. Hives are usually allergic (food, medication, cosmetics and insect stings) but may also be due to infections and stress. Many a times no specific cause for them is ever found. Most cases are mild and resolve on their own. They usually go away on their own.
It is difficult to give you a definite answer because you have not specifically identified what this background-color: #dae8f4'>rash is other than <span style = '<span style = 'background-color: #dae8f4'>back</span>ground-color: #dae8f4'>rash</span>. I do not know where the <span style = '<span style = 'background-color: #dae8f4'>back</span>ground-color: #dae8f4'>rash</span> is found or whether this is a fungal <span style = '<span style = 'background-color: #dae8f4'>back</span>ground-color: #dae8f4'>rash</span> or an allergy <span style = '<span style = 'background-color: #dae8f4'>back</span>ground-color: #dae8f4'>rash</span>. You see, background-color: #dae8f4'>rashes are usually not the CAUSE but the symptom. So perhaps you can best help your daughter by trying to find out what is causing the background-color: #dae8f4'>rash. Does she suffer from a fungal problem or a bacterial problem or an allergy?
