In order to turn to a specialist in time and not to alarm the alarm in vain, you need to know what kinds of rashes occur and what problems they entail.

Types of rashes on the skin

  1. Allergic skin rashes. About one third of the inhabitants of our planet are affected by allergic skin rashes. Food, household chemicals and plants are the most common allergens. With prolonged contact with the allergen, the person develops an appropriate reaction in the body - eyes can begin to water, a runny nose or allergic skin rashes may appear. To get rid of these unpleasant consequences, first of all, you should identify the allergen and eliminate contact with it. Fresh air and water procedures make the allergic reaction not so sharp. If skin rashes and other symptoms do not go away, you should consult a specialist.
  2. Bubble rashes on the skin. Watery blisters on the skin in most cases indicate more serious problems. This phenomenon is observed in diseases such as chicken pox, herpes zoster, and lichen. When itchy bubble rashes appear on the skin, one should not self-medicate.
  3. Hives. This unpleasant disease occurs in every fifth person at least once during a lifetime. Eruptions appear on the body very quickly. Urticaria can cause contact with a cosmetic product, dirty water, certain foods. Rashes on the skin can be purulent or in the form of blisters. In a few days they tend to pass.
  4. Rashes on the skin from sweat. This problem is typical for the hot season. People who suffer from profuse sweating often notice rashes on their bodies in those places that sweat most. Sweat irritates the skin and, if it is not washed off in time, leads to the appearance of rashes. In order to reduce the appearance of acne and redness to a minimum, you should often take a shower and watch for personal hygiene.
  5. Rashes on the skin after sunburn. This unpleasant phenomenon is more susceptible to fair-haired and light-skinned people. Long stay in the sun negatively affects the condition of the light skin. Skin eruptions in summer indicate that the skin suffers from excessive amounts of ultraviolet light. As a rule, if you limit your stay in the sun, skin rashes after sunburn will pass.
  6. Rashes on the skin of pregnant women. During pregnancy, women undergo serious changes in the body, which often lead to the appearance of various rashes on the skin. The causes of skin rash in pregnant women can be very different - toxicosis, a lack of vitamins, improper nutrition, low mobility.
  7. Nervous rashes on the skin. Rashes on the skin in some adults are due to stress, nervous breakdown and strong feelings. In this case, the reasons for the rash on the skin are psychological. If this phenomenon is observed frequently and it is not possible to get rid of it completely, you should consult a specialist.

Before embarking on the treatment of rashes on the skin, you need to be sure of the correctness of determining the cause that causes them. At elevated temperature and white rashes on the skin should not be experimented with cosmetic and folk remedies, since such symptoms may indicate serious diseases.
