I had a big rash on my pubic area...lots and lots of little red bumps and it burned.

Question

I did the same thing on my hands and it doesn't go away in either place. It just spreads out. What could it be? yes I have applied cortisone cream and it only increases my redness .

Good evening ma'am, Sorry first for the delay in response. The situation you describe unfortunately cannot be handled by a pharmacist. Indeed, only a physician can make a diagnosis and what you describe deserves a physician's attention so that the cause can be identified and treated accordingly. That said, it is sometimes considered in situations like this to try the application of a cortisone cream (Cortate™). Have you tried it? Thank you for these details. So there is a real risk that the pimples are caused by the presence of an infection. You will have to go see a doctor to have a precise diagnosis and treat it accurately. It is my pleasure, Alexandre Chagnon, pharmacist
