It manifests as a visible eruption, often presenting as redness, inflammation, or small raised bumps on the skin's surface. Rashes can result from a diverse array of causes, including but not limited to allergic reactions, infections, autoimmune disorders, or exposure to irritants.

Oak Dermatology Reviews
Dr. Fang is the best dermatologist in Joliet she explains you things well and take care of you. She's not rushed she takes her time.
Dr. Fang and is an absolutely amazing dermatologist! She’s extremely personable and is thorough in her discussions about procedures and after care. I highly recommend her.
After trying to get rid of my acne with over the counter products I decided to try going to a dermatologist. They got me on a routine and my acne is significantly better since I have stuck to it daily.
Staff is friendly and helpful. Stephanie Tracey is personable and takes her time during visits.
Had an excellent first experience with Oak Derm today. I was seen by NP Emily Schnurstein for facial flushing and hair loss. She listened carefully to all of my concerns and addressed each one of them throughly. The front desk staff was also very pleasant.

What Are the Most Common Skin Rashes?
The most common skin rashes include eczema, psoriasis, contact dermatitis, and rosacea. Eczema, also known as atopic dermatitis, is characterized by dry, itchy, and inflamed skin, often triggered by allergens or irritants. Psoriasis presents as red, scaly patches on the skin, commonly found on the elbows, knees, and scalp, and is an autoimmune condition. Contact dermatitis results from exposure to irritants or allergens, causing red, itchy, and sometimes blistered skin. Rosacea primarily affects the face, causing redness, visible blood vessels, and sometimes small, red, pus-filled bumps. These rashes have distinct triggers and treatments but often share symptoms like redness and itching.
