Sent to Health Experts March 14, 2007 8:11 a.m.

I have a reacurring red raised patch that goes away and comes back in the same place a couple months latter on the cheek of my butt. It is the only place and it itches a lot. It seems to run its course and eventually goes away, nothing I put on it seems to help. The patch feels kind of hard and bumpy about the size of a quarter or a little bigger.

Optional Information:
Female , Age: 54

Already Tried:
hydracortizone cream and first aid cream. It is not open.

Is the rash itchy when it appears?
How long has this been going on?
Any other correlation between the rash and other symptoms-liek eating a new food, new hygiene product use etc.?
Have you been seen by your physician for this / a dermatologist?
Does it ooze?
Any allergies / dry skin that you may be having?
regards
Dr. Gupta

Yes the rash is very itchy and it has been coming and going for probably a year. I cannot correlate it to any particular thing, I know that when I have it, it seems to be irritated more when I work out. Maybe that is just the fabric rubbing on it. It does not ooze but it looks like a bunch of little pimples real concentrated. I do not have any allergies that I know of and my skin seems to be normal as far as dryness is concerned.
