Natural remedy on leg rashes

In order to cure a rash of any kind, it is important to first know what is causing it. If your rash has persisted for more than a month, it is advisable to show it to a dermatologist and rule out the possibility of anything serious. Rashes could be caused due to allergies or dry skin.


In both cases, you would need to boost your immune system in order to keep your skin generally healthy. Consuming a teaspoon of Indian gooseberry (indian gooseberry) powder every day will help tremendously in improving your general immunity. If you can get this fruit fresh, it will work even better.



You must first ensure that the rash on your upper leg is not due to allergy to a particular fabric that has come in close contact with your skin. If it is, stop wearing it immediately. If it is any other kind of allergy, a baking soda soak will help it tremendously. Mix a couple of teaspoons of baking soda in a glass of water and completely immerse a washcloth in this. Place the washcloth on the rash and leave for at least 10 minutes. This will help heal the rash. A simple cool compress of ice cubes wrapped in a washcloth will provide instant relief from the itching. Applying milk and milk cream will also help soothe the rash. A paste of sandalwood and rosewater will help soothe and cool the skin. You must try to keep the rash exposed as much as possible.
