🥲HELP! What’s going on? Look at my neck

I woke up at 2am today because a burning feeling on my left side of my neck and small part of my back I was shocked and scared so I recorded my neck in the middle of the night and realized my neck looks like this 😭😢 before you judge and be like “just go to urgent care” go to the dermatologist I called all the doctors (dermatologist) in my city and they are all booked for the next 2 months and I didn’t came to urgent care yet because I got my insurance cancelled 😢 and said I’ll wait few hours and see how my skin reacts and definitely will come to see a doctor at urgent care later today.

Did something like this happened to you before? Any dermatologist here to help? IT BURNS!! Like burns…

It was red now its purple, no bubbles no weird thing on it its like when you hirt yourself and you get your skin purple? Dont know how to say it.

Skin issues can be alarming and discomforting, especially when they arise suddenly. A burning sensation and changes in skin color, such as reddening or purpling, could indicate several underlying conditions, ranging from allergic reactions to infections. It's essential to monitor for additional symptoms, such as swelling, itching, or the formation of blisters, as these can provide crucial clues about the issue at hand. While professional medical advice is always recommended, there are also some initial home remedies that might offer temporary relief. Applying a cool compress can help soothe the burning sensation. Over-the-counter antihistamines may also alleviate symptoms if an allergic reaction is suspected. Keeping the affected area clean and avoiding irritants like harsh soaps or perfumes is crucial. If there’s uncertainty about the cause of the rash, it may be wise to keep a diary of symptoms to provide a clear history to a healthcare professional once you can get an appointment. Meanwhile, engaging online with forums or communities can facilitate advice from those with similar experiences. Remember, while waiting to see a doctor is sometimes necessary, persistent symptoms should not be ignored, and seeking urgent care can ensure timely intervention.
