Common Questions and Answers about Itchy rash chin
rash
Hello,
It can be due to eczema skin which presents as red, dry itchy flaky rash in response to an allergic reaction. 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).
I've had a weird circular rash on my chin for about 4 months now. I've been diagnosed twice as having ezcema and the doctors gave me some steroid creams to put on. I don't think it helped my situation at all. It would help with the itch but didn't get better in size. In fact, it has spread to about half my chin now. Recently, another spot (same thing) also appeared on the other side of my chin. I have a derm appointment in 2 weeks but it seems too long.
I have had this rash on and off for the last few months. As of yesterday it will not go away. It is all over my cheeks and chin and nose and some on my forehead. It's not really itchy. I have taken allergy medicine and Benadryl but it hasn't helped. It isn't really like hives. Almost looks like acne but the bumps are all the same size and they're just red no white heads or anything. You can't really even feel them. It's almost as if they're under the skin.
It seemed to heal fine all around my face for the week after all the skin the peeled but then around that time, I woke up and my chin was feeling itchy and irritated, I stupidly shaved and then it was really irritated, red and itchy (Note: These are not 'shaving bumps'). I borrowed some of my wife`s foundation because I had to go to work and that made matters even worse. Then when I got home my area was red, inflamed and very itchy.
last week I decided to shave the area on my chin and the next day I have an itchy rash like appearance on my chin and two more red spots about 2 inches below the others on my chin. I made an appointment to see a dermatologist but have to wait 10 days. I sort of freaked out after seeing the appearance of the rash and two more bumps and went to the ER. the doctor told me it was a skin infection and gave me bactroban creme and bactrim antibiotics. I don't see any change after 3 days now.
I have had a beard for over 15 years. Recently I developed a severely red itchy rash on my chin and face. So I shaved my beard off and treated the rash with moisturizer and in two days it was gone. It stayed gone for about a week until my beard started filling back in, Then the rash came back just as bad as before. Once again I shaved and moisturized and in two days it was gone again, A week later its back. Am I doomed to be clean shaven.
I had a patch on my chin about the size of a dime which itched and peeled on occasion. It seems where my skin is irritated another developes. I now have 7 in the chin area and two near my eye brows. I literally could itch my face off but I am religious about putting Vit. E, dry skin lotion and the MD gave me fungal meds which have not helped. They have left dark spots on my chin which I can't conceal. Any ideas.
I was taking Bactrim for a staph infection and took it for 10 days as prescribed and finished my last dose on Monday, July 7. Yesterday, July 12 I awoke to a slight itchying under my chin but didn't notice it for the rest of the day. This morning however I woke myself up scratching. I had raised bumps and slight swelling. As the day has worn on, it has become noticably red and itching much more and spreading down onto my neck.
A year ago I developed a rash, similar to teenage zits under the right nostril, traveling down around the corner of my mouth and chin. My rash felt prickly hot and raw. Nothing I used helped, and it just got worse. After about two months, the rash cleared, but it left a patch of scaly skin that itched, but finally went away. Is this a new symptom? I emailed my doctor, she said to use an antibacterial soap, it did help.
Any thoughts?
I have had a "rash" that started on my chin, and has now spread across my face and into my ears. It is very itchy and has watery blisters that dry up and flake off (my skin is very red around this area). I've seen my GP and a dermotologist to no avail. Anyone have any suggetions?
However, a couple days ago, I noticed I now have the tiny blisters covering my nose, I have a patch on my chin, and tiny patched on my fingers and hands. One area formed a line underneath a ring I always wear. Some spots itch, others don't. Do you think this is something I need to go to the doctor for? This has never happened to me before.
Hello,
Please elaborate on the symptoms and description of the rash whether it is itchy, non itchy, discharging, dry, smooth, elevated etc so that a list of differentials can be made.
It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your dermatologist. I sincerely hope that helps.
Come Sunday I had around 12 pimples with reddness in morning. On Monday, it my chin was on fire, it was tingly and itchy all day and the pimple like rash just spread. It is now, Tuesday and it I covered my chin and part of my cheeks. It is tingly, itchy, with red bumps, hot and with pimple like puss. They want to do a biopsy but I do not have insurance. Can anyone tell me what this is? Could this be cause by me using the steriod cream?
Need help!!!

5 cm (on the perimeter of the armpit only on the right side)They have always been reddish, and itchy. I also have a patch of the rash on my chin, under my lower lip. The facial rash isn't itchy, but it has existed for the same duration and I have NEVER had acne.
I've been using over-the-counter cortizone lotion with limited success. It decreases the inflammation but doesn't seem to stop the growth (in terms of sq.cm).
What could this be!?!?! I haven't recently changed ANYTHING!
I have a red rash/cluster of blemishes on my chin that has extended up my cheek and under my chin. They are not itchy or painful, just unsightly. It has been present for a couple of months now. I have tried everything to get rid of them--zit cream, tea tree oil, Metronidazole cream, homeopathic rosacea gel, eczema cream, Desitin, and calamine lotion. Nothing seems to help. I did not change my makeup, laundry detergent, or skin care products before it began. I have fair, sensitive skin as well.
So, I've had mono for over a month now. I originally got a reaction from being prescribed amoxicillin but that was just the first week. About over a week ago, I ended up getting another rash. However, it seemed to be my normal allergic reaction to tomatoes, since I had eaten some the week before that. The rash only cleared up (but not completely) a couple days ago. The redness and itchiness was gone however the skin where it had been still felt slightly raised, just now skin tone.
The vermillion border of my lips is bright red and extremely itchy all around. I have had to put aquaphor on literally every 30 minutes so my lips don’t get dry and itchy. A couple days ago I went to urgent care and was prescribed two topical creams, one that was anti fungal and one that was anti bacterial. I was told to put both on at the same time three times a day. This immediately made my lips exponentially worse.
Each doctor thinks its something else. The fungal cream has made it unbearably itchy and sore. The rash is beginning to spread and you can see is almost forming small lumps. I can also see its moving inside my nose somehow.
Could it be an allergy? I have come home for 6 days and it has almost gotten worse since then, so i don't think it is environment based. I've stopped drinking and smoking 2 weeks ago and no difernce.
I'm going through the same exact thing right now too! It's sooo itchy! all I get is red skin but no bumps or rash at all. And like you, a cold rag feels amazing and pretty much takes it away. Did you ever find anything to help?
Dear Sirs,
I've just come back from holidays in Jamaica and 3 days ago I got a heat rash. I'm taking the Prednisone 40mg a day. My arms and legs look better and there is no itchy, but I still have some burning sensation on my face, neck and chest. It appears suddenly and keep for a while, it cools down a bit with help of cold water.I wonder whether this fine redness and burning on my face and neck is part of the heat rash or maybe something else? Any advice what to do more?
For the last 2-3 months I have had a swollen gland under the left side of my chin. It will get bigger and smaller but has overall gotten bigger over the months. I've also had naseau, night sweats, body aches, fatigue, and some mild swelling on the left side of my face. Now, in the last week I have gotten an itchy, red pimple-like rash over my shoulders, chest, neck and back. I'm not running a fever, but my body feels extremely hot. What could this be? .
