Skin Rash

I have a rash on my inner thigh.  I've had it for about a month now.  Someparts of the rash are raised, and others are not.  It is not itchy.  And it doesn't bother me.  It is about 6 inches long.  I live in a cold climate in Pittsburgh, I have not used any thing to put on since it does not itch.  Do you have any suggestions?

Hard to say, Linda: coud be eczema or fungus or irritation.  Try applying two over-the-counter creams once daily each, 1& clotrimazole and 1% hydrocortisone.  If the rash persists beyong 10 days, ask a doc to have a look.

Best.
