What causes Rashes?

Rashes vary greatly and can be caused by a multitude of factors including existing health conditions, exposure to allergens or bacteria. When trying to find out what caused a rash it is important to consider your health status or trace your recent actions and locations. Rashes can be caused by exposure to certain lotions, certain climates, apparel, laundry detergent and even anxiety.
