Red spots on the body can become a symptom of various skin diseases or an allergic reaction to a substance. Of course, self-medication often leads to a worsening of the situation, so it is advisable to show the rash to the doctor in order to accurately establish the diagnosis.
First of all, red spots on the body are a clear sign of urticaria, in which the formation of blisters gradually occurs. The reason for its appearance may be foods, medications, a reaction to taking antibiotics, the presence of a virus in the body, increased sweating, and others. As a rule, when eliminating the source of the rash, they pass without any special treatment. Effectively helps with allergies or eczema infusion of flowers of a clover. To prepare it, take 1 tablespoon and pour 1 cup of boiling water. The cooled infusion is used 100 ml up to 5 times during the day. In a similar way, you can cook chamomile infusion, which is taken as tea (you can add sugar or natural honey). Often, allergic rashes are advisable to eliminate by taking antihistamines in combination with local treatment of rashes. In no case do not comb the spots and mask them before visiting the doctor with any medications (greenback, iodine, furatsilin, etc.), as this can complicate the work of a specialist and cause an incorrect diagnosis.
If red spots on the body are accompanied by itching and burning, then this can be a signal of pink lichen, which occurs with prolonged exposure to too high or too low temperature, as well as with latent infection. Often the disease manifests itself in the autumn-spring period, when there is an exacerbation of many diseases. For the treatment of pink lichen, cabbage leaves can be used, which must first be greased with sour cream. Apply such compresses to the affected areas of the body until the leaves completely dry. After this, repeat the procedure.
Red spots in a child may indicate the initial stage of chickenpox, rubella, or measles. An experienced specialist in the field of pediatrics and dermatology will be able to accurately establish the disease and prescribe the optimal treatment, taking into account the age of the child and his physical development.
In adults, red spots often appear when poisoning with alcoholic drinks or chemicals, since there is an excess of toxic load on the liver. In this case, it is necessary to neutralize the effects of harmful substances and rid the body of their contents as much as possible (droppers, enemas, gastric lavage, etc.). After this, it is necessary to restore the functions of the body.
If red spots on the body are a symptom of lupus erythematosus, then you can apply the prescription of alternative medicine. To do this, you need to take nettle, plantain, lingonberry and birch in equal proportions. To this collection add tansy, St. John's wort, dandelion roots, sweet clover, coltsfoot, highlander and oregano, then mix the herbs thoroughly. For 2 tablespoons of collection, you need 2 cups of boiling water, which should be poured over the grass and left to infuse. Take the prepared broth 50 ml 3-4 times a day for a month and a half.
The most serious and dangerous pathologies in which red spots appear on the back are the secondary form of syphilis, fungal mycosis, Lyme disease and some other infectious diseases. All these conditions require the supervision of a doctor and mandatory treatment. Without these measures, the process will only worsen, increasing the negative impact on the human body.
