Patient discussion about exanthem.

Q. Anyone out there my age? (76) with problems with terrible rashes, maybe a type of psoriasis? I have high blood pressure that my doctor cannot seem to control with meds. I have swollen ankles, achilles tendon problems, arthritis, high cholesterol, and a rash that won't quit. Deep red, itchy, painful, and unbearable. My dermatologist is not at all helpful. Can't tell me what it is or how to treat it. Meds he prescribed only made it worse. Anyone out there with this same type of problem?

A. First of all, start right now to drink 2 - 2.5 liters water a day. Read for that about Dr. med. F. "Batman" Batmanghelidj:

Q. What do I do with this horrible Diaper Rash?? I have no idea what is up with my daughters diaper rash, she is a year old and I do everything to keep this rash from coming, but it comes back! All week I have let her run without a diaper on trying to let it air out as much as possible, (thank god for carpet shampooers).Is there any secret that someone has to getting rid of this rash?

A. My own daughter was yeasty from whatever they do to newborns in the hospital and I battled it ever day until I started taking garlic gel tabs. Because I breasfed her she got all the benefits of it and her bottom cleared right up.
Probiotics can help, yogurt, kefir and the like. Super Salve from supersalve.com is amazing in its healing abilities. Avoid processed foods and especially sugars.

Q. Doyou know if the Plant Yarrow give a RASH?

A. i found 2 sources that claims it does-
"Some caution should be exercised in the use of this herb since large or frequent doses taken over a long period may be potentially harmful, causing allergic rashes and making the skin more sensitive to sunlight"

sounds reasonable, every material can be allergenic. so i would stop using it if i were you- if you are indeed allergic, it'll only get worst
