“Rash?”
A few days ago a rash began on my chest. I checked my temperature and had a low-grade fever…99.5.
I took Benadryl for a few days without improvement. Decided to then take Tylenol and the fever is now is gone. The rash still remains as before. Some spots have grown a little in size, some have gotten less red, and a couple of new spots have appeared. The rash is neither swollen, itchy, or infected. Had a headache and a sore throat. Did check for strep, no evidence of it.
Feel fine now, except the rash remains.
Seems like a viral rash that just needs time to go away?
