Typical Rashes
Rash in short: is an acute and widespread temporary
reddish eruption on the skin. A rash can develop in individuals
that are sensitive to a particular drug, prescription or
nonprescription. The rashes are characterized by itching of an
intensity that can interfere with sleep or normal activities.
The rash results from the entire body reacting to the drug
itself and usually develops early in treatment rather than after
the drug has been taken for a period of time.
Rash is a change in the skin which affects its appearance and or
texture. Most often a rash is localised to one part of the body,
but other times it can have an affect on the entire body. Rashes
can cause the skin to change color, become bumpy, dry, itchy,
swell among other things that can result in alot of pain.
Because of the wide array of rash
symptoms treatments also vary widely. A proper diagnosis
should look at all of the visual and physical symptoms of the
rash, and also what the possible cause of the rash was. Often
times the area in which the rash exists can tell alot about it's
condition, and where it is going. Rashes are often times
associated and a result of diseases. For example, measles with
cause a rash, that begins a few days after the fever begins.

stings,etc), skin contact with an irritant, infection or
reaction to a vaccine, skin diseases such as eczema or acne,
