Rash

[lcsoon]

Hi. Kindly disregard the previous question.

I have tiny red rashes on my arms, hands and legs. I have been sufering from this 6 days ago and i didnt bite by any insects. The symptoms are
- not itchy and not painful
- a bit bumpy and not localised.  
- no blister and no yellowish.
- No sore throat, no fever.
- My body is itching (For sure, its not caused by rash and my body have started itching last 10 days ago).

I have consulted for many doctors and they only gave me a cream to be applied. Is it caused by allergic reaction like environment (bed etc), chemical, food? Can u elaborate more in detail?? Any treatment for this rash?

Do reply soonest possible. Many thanks....

Hello,
Since this rash is widespread, so it can be due to an allergic reaction or viral rash. Please keep the area clean and apply some topical antiseptics. Also wear loose-fitting cotton clothing and use an antibacterial soap or mild soap like dove. Avoid any kind of cosmetics but you can use calamine lotion as it helps in soothing the skin. Oral antihistaminics can also be taken but they should be used after a dermatologist’s guidance.

It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor. I sincerely hope that helps. Take care and please do keep me posted on how you are doing.

I wanna add up here. The red rashes are starting to bump a bit today. And there are small blisters on my face. When I pinch it, it is fluid and not pimple.

Thanks
