Resolved question:
I'm having red spots on my skin in the chest area. Check the attachment for an image.
My body grows a lot of hair and hence, I use a trimmer to remain clean. Most often, I take a shower just after trimming. What could be the problem?

Hello,
Thank you for your query at DoctorSpring.com
I understand your concern.
Although, the image is not very clear, but it does look like an allergic reaction with tiny eruptions around the centre of your chest. It can happen after shaving. If the eruptions are painful and have pus heads the diagnosis is likely to be folliculitis.
Either way, I will advise you apply Mupirocin ointment on the eruption 2-3 times daily and also take Tab. Claritin 10 mg once daily at bedtime.
This will reduce the eruptions in a couple of days.
Hope this was helpful,
Regards.
