Sarcoidosis |
Rash08/31/2009 |
I have a red rash that started on hands (covered them) worked its way to my wrists and on my elbows & at the small of my back....very itchy. I was diagnosed with Sarcoidosis 10 yrs ago - but have had no real problems with it.Could this be a Sarcoidosis rash? I am very sensitive to detergents, perfumes, and chemicles & have eliminated any of that as a cause - as well as plants....
Thanks
It is difficult to determine if this rash relates to sarcoidosis without specific testing. I would recommend an evaluation by your doctors to look into this. If the rash is caused by sarcoidosis, it could be a sign of disease activation elsewhere.
