[|Human|] I have a rash on my left leg at the ankle -it has hard small raised surfaces and is bright red shading off to pink. It is on my leg where the leg and ankle meet -it has not gotten any larger or better and itches at times. What shall I put on it to ease the tightness and mild itch? My leg is also awollen around the knee and should I keep elevatating that leg and if so how high. I am in a wheelchair much of the time.
[|AI|]  Hi, It seems that probably you may be having contact allergic dermatitis at ankle area. Consult the dermatologist for the perfect diagnosis and proper treatment.  I would suggest you to find out the contact ant which triggers the disease and avoid that. It may be material of shoes, socks,the part of wheelchair, soap or other. Take tab. Cetirizine daily and apply mild steroid cream on affected area. Swelling of knee may be due to arthritis of the knee. Consult the rheumatologist or orthopedic surgeon. Take rest with elevated leg about two pillows. Hot compresses might improve.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.  Take care
