What causes skin irritations?

Answer #1

“The skin serves as a barrier against infections and contaminants. Most of the time it works very well. However, some substances can irritate the skin and lead to an uncomfortable and unsightly rash. An itchy, blistering rash may be due to an allergic reaction. A red, scaly, and perhaps slightly swollen rash is more likely to be caused by an irritant. The medical term for this type of rash is contact dermatitis. “
