There are many different types of skin rashes that may necessitate a visit with a doctor, depending on their location and severity. Poison ivy, dermatitis, rosacea, ringworm, eczema, and athlete’s foot are all common types of rashes. A rash can be caused by a virus, bacteria, parasite, or fungus, which can make self-diagnosis at home extremely difficult. At Midwest Dermatology, we offer comprehensive diagnosis and treatment for a wide range of skin rashes, making it easy for you to obtain the correct diagnosis, so you can begin effective treatment quickly and resolve your symptoms fast. Some skin rashes are contagious and can be passed between different people or spread to other areas of the body if left untreated, so it is always best to speak with a doctor if you have an uncomfortable skin rash.
