Trump Now Has a Giant, Crusty Rash on His Neck

https://www.yahoo.com/news/articles/trump-now-giant-crusty-rash-183900255.html

Trump appeared to have a large red rash on the back of his neck Monday.

While speaking at the White House about his illegal war with Iran, Trump was spotted with a dark red patch of skin peeking out from under his collar. In a photograph taken by AFP photographer Saul Loeb, a large scab is visible.

It wasn’t immediately clear what caused the red mark. Possible causes of a red rash could include contact or atopic dermatitis, also known as eczema, psoriasis, or heat rash. It could also be caused by shingles.
