Sometimes it happens that we notice rashes on the skin that were not there before. Spots, pustules, papules — all these are signals from our body about certain problems. There can be many reasons for changes in the condition of the skin, and only a professional doctor can find out what caused the rash and, if necessary, prescribe treatment. Then the question arises: which specialist to contact? For example, an allergy with rashes and itching is not always easy to distinguish from a skin disease. Who should I turn to in this case, a dermatologist or an allergist? Hypersensitivity reactions always occur in response to the introduction of any substance. It can be a food product, plant pollen, animal hair, medicine. In most cases, the cause-and-effect relationship is obvious, and the patient is sent for a consultation with an allergist. Nevertheless, especially in children, it is easy to make a mistake when trying to determine the nature of the rash yourself. Therefore, which doctor is necessary — your pediatrician will tell you. He will help establish the general cause of rashes, determine whether they are related to infectious diseases and, if necessary, refer to the appropriate specialist.
