Ars rash?

I had unprotected sex male to male i was the top about a week and a half ago and i came down with tonsillitis no sore throat though. And yesterday i took Advil PM and and about 4 hours later i have a rash all over my body like hives it itches like crazy and also burns i thought it was a allergic reaction to the Advil PM but i have taken it before and this has never happened before, I've taken benadryl and the rash doesnt go away. My question is does the HIV ARS rash appear like this without fever and other symptoms and does it look like hives all over the body?

Thanks for your reply. Can you explain how is the rash associated with HIV/ARS ?

Your symptoms are not ARS releated. You have put yourself at risk and you will need to test. You can obtain your conclusive test result 3 months post exposure.
