Walk-in diagnosis and treatment for rashes, hives, eczema flare-ups, contact dermatitis, fungal infections, and skin irritations at TrufaMED Urgent Care in Surfside, FL.
Skin rashes, hives, and dermatological conditions can appear suddenly and range from mildly irritating to intensely uncomfortable. Waiting weeks for a dermatology appointment is not always an option — especially when a rash is spreading, painful, or accompanied by other symptoms.
TrufaMED provides same-day evaluation and treatment for a wide range of skin conditions. Our providers examine your rash, determine its cause, and prescribe targeted treatment including topical and oral medications to provide relief quickly.
Visit urgent care for a skin rash if it appeared suddenly and is spreading, is accompanied by fever or joint pain, involves swelling of the face or throat (go to ER for severe swelling), is painful or blistering, shows signs of infection like warmth, pus, or red streaking, or is not improving after several days of home treatment.
Rapid treatment for hives (urticaria), contact dermatitis, and allergic skin reactions with antihistamines, corticosteroids, and identification of potential triggers to prevent future outbreaks.
Management of acute eczema flare-ups, atopic dermatitis, and seborrheic dermatitis with prescription-strength topical treatments, moisturizing protocols, and flare prevention strategies.
Diagnosis and treatment of ringworm, athlete's foot, jock itch, and yeast infections with appropriate antifungal medications — both topical and oral when needed.
Evaluation and treatment of cellulitis, impetigo, folliculitis, and infected wounds with antibiotics and wound care to prevent spread and complications.
Treatment for severe reactions to mosquito bites, fire ant stings, and other insect bites including antihistamines, corticosteroids, and infection prevention.
Relief for contact dermatitis from poison ivy, poison oak, and other plant exposures with corticosteroid therapy, anti-itch treatments, and blister management.
South Florida's warm, humid climate creates unique skin challenges. Heat rash, fungal infections, and sun-related skin conditions are especially common in the Miami area. Exposure to tropical plants, insects, and salt water can trigger reactions that residents from other regions may not have experienced before.
Contact dermatitis from plants, chemicals, and jewelry is one of the most frequent reasons patients visit TrufaMED for skin concerns. Our providers identify the irritant or allergen responsible and prescribe targeted treatment to resolve the reaction and prevent recurrence.
For rashes that do not respond to initial treatment or that recur frequently, we provide referrals to board-certified dermatologists with complete documentation of your evaluation and treatment history. Our goal is to provide immediate relief while ensuring you receive the right long-term care.

Learn About Concierge Medicine →Skin rashes have many possible causes: contact dermatitis (poison ivy, nickel, latex, fragrance), allergic reactions to food or medication, viral infections (shingles, hand-foot-mouth, fifth disease), bacterial infections (cellulitis, impetigo, MRSA), fungal infections (ringworm, athlete's foot), inflammatory conditions (eczema flare, psoriasis, rosacea), and systemic conditions (lupus, autoimmune flare). Same-day physician evaluation distinguishes which category your rash falls into and matches treatment to the cause.
Get evaluated within 24 hours for: rash with fever above 101°F, rash spreading rapidly (within hours), rash with severe pain or burning out of proportion to appearance, rash with blistering, rash on the face that affects vision or breathing, painful rash that wraps around one side of the body (suggests shingles), rash with mucous membrane involvement (mouth, eyes, genitals), or any rash in a patient on immunosuppressive medication.
Treatment depends entirely on the cause. Allergic and inflammatory rashes typically respond to oral or topical corticosteroids, antihistamines, and trigger avoidance. Bacterial infections require oral antibiotics matched to the likely organism. Fungal infections need topical or oral antifungal medication. Viral rashes are usually managed symptomatically (calamine, oatmeal baths, comfort measures) while the body clears the virus. Your TrufaMED physician will explain exactly what your rash is, why it appeared, and the timeline you should expect for resolution.
South Florida's climate produces some predictable rash patterns: heat rash (miliaria) from prolonged sun and sweat, sea bather's eruption from jellyfish larvae after ocean swims, fungal infections from prolonged humidity, contact dermatitis from frequent sunscreen use, and bug-bite reactions (mosquitoes, no-see-ums, fire ants). Your physician knows the local pattern and can often diagnose at sight.
