I was thinking that I had never had an allergic reaction to anything before, but (whether I just didn't notice it earlier) going out into the sun brought it to my attention.
Today, the rash on my face has almost entirely disappeared, but it moved onto my trunk in the form of clumps of red spots, and individual ones. I went to my local GP and he said it was a kind of viral infection. He didn't know what, but rubella or chicken pocks perhaps. But it wasn't a run-of-the-mill strain, apparently. I have no other symptoms, though I was ill last week but slept most of the way through it due to work hours.
So, the anithistamine didn't help, and he hasn't given me anything but a certificate for four working days off. He said to go back if things got worse, but today nothing has changed. If it had been serious, I am sure he would have sent me for a blood check, or something of the sort. If it starts to itch, I'll use calamine lotion, that settles the inflammation, doesn't it?
Thanks for the advice, though.
Hi,
This could be allergic reactions to unknown substances, skin hypersensitivity, eczema, dermatitis .
You should not scratch or pick at the lesions as this would cause secondary bacterial infection.
Do you notice the lesions trigerred in response to a specific stimulus? Try to avoid substances that you have have shown allergic reactions to.
Are you allergic to any specific substances? Have you had allergic reactions in the past?
Apply calamine lotion at the site and take some oral antihistamine medications for your symptoms.
If the symptoms are still persistent, consult a dermatologist and get a proper clinical evaluation done.
Let us know if you have any doubts and keep us posted on how you are doing.
Good luck.
