Good focussed pictures are essential for an accurate diagnosis, however some pictures may be larger than necessary. An image with a file size of 2 Mb is adequate. Make sure you save it as a jpeg as this gives the best compression and reduces the file sizes on our server.
Phone camera images are fine but reduce the file size to 2Mb rather than 24Mb.
Remember good pictures are essential for an accurate diagnosis.
Make sure they are in focus.
You can submit as many images as you wish but somewhere between 3 and 6 should suffice. The first one should give an overview of the distribution of the rash, the others should give close up views of the main lesions, but also include the edge of the lesion. You can and should submit more images if the lesions look different in different areas.
In designing this web site, we have tried to make it as easy as possible for you to send your information and your pictures.
