What Causes Rashes?

Rashes can be triggered by allergies, irritants, infections, immune dysfunction, environmental exposure, or underlying skin disease. Conditions like eczema, contact dermatitis, psoriasis, rosacea, and fungal infections often present as rashes.

Accurate diagnosis is essential. Our dermatologists take a detailed medical history, perform targeted tests, and create a personalised plan for treatment and prevention.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I know what kind of rash I have?

A dermatologist’s diagnosis is key. We use visual assessment, clinical history, and sometimes tests like patch testing or skin biopsy.

Can I treat a rash with over-the-counter creams?

Mild rashes may improve with basic creams, but incorrect treatment can worsen some conditions. Professional assessment is recommended for persistent or severe rashes.

Are rashes contagious?

Some, like viral or fungal infections, can be. Others, like eczema or allergic rashes, are not. Accurate diagnosis is important for safe care.

How long does it take for a rash to clear?

With correct treatment, many rashes improve within days to weeks. Chronic conditions may need ongoing management.

Do you treat children with rashes?

Yes. We offer paediatric dermatology services and create gentle, effective treatment plans for kids of all ages.
