At first I thought it was syphillis (sorry for spelling) for Ive gotten a red zit type thing before this 2 times, each one quite a time away from each other (4-5 months). But then I saw some images of what the sore looks like when you have syphillis, and it looked nothing like a crater type thing, rather like a non-popped zit
Then another way Ive convinced my self I dont have syphillis is by being abstinent for my entire life so far - so unless its caught air born (which i thought it couldnt live outside the body) then I shouldnt have it... (i havent gotten a blood transfusion and I highly doubt my mom had it when I was born way back in 1986)
Now I have this. I believe i have this rash on my wrist cause the day before it happened, I bent my hand forward so it stretched the skin completely, then i saw it get red - and I was bored so I sucked right on the tightened spot (class was a snoozer). So far one has scabbed over and thats from me poking it on acciedent... I have been in water alot lately - I take showers daily and baths almost daily (to relax for 15 min). Also - its been snowing alot lately, and so its moist out side. Should i be concerned or is this just a common rash one gets when the skin is irritated enough.
I can take a picture of the rash if you like as well.Any help? I rather not see a dctor if possible
I highly doubt that water has anything to do with it.
I wouldn't worry about it unless it happens again. Since the rash is only on your hand, think about what it alone has been exposed to.
