[|Human|] My father, aged 87 years, is now suffering with skin rashes and he cannot control the itching. He has developed this problem since last two months. He is however not willing to go to a hospital or visit a dermatologist. What kind of safe medication can be given to him?
[|AI|]  Hi, Itchy rashes over skin could be due to eczema, allergic hives, atopic dermatitis, Tina corporal etc. The important thing is to diagnose first rather than treatment. You can go to skin specialist for detailed history of your father and inspection of rashes to have a clear diagnosis. You might require topical corticosteroid like beclomethasone, clobetasol or mometasome with antifungal cream like fluconazole or itraconazole with antihistamines orally to reduce itching. Some time oral antifungal once dosage with prednisolone are also effective. So, you must take him to the doctor.
