Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I am a 28-year-old male. I have rashes over hands and legs. They are not red rashes, but more like insect bites. I also have swelling, especially on the feet. My doctor has prescribed Benadryl an anti-allergy tablet. I am also experiencing shivering when body is feeling hot. What am I looking at? I am really worried. Please help.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
As per the query quoted it appears to be a case of fever with rash the etiology of which is vast. It can be infectious, allergic, immunological, drug-induced, etc. You need to be specific with details like onset, duration, progression, nature of the rash, whether painful or itchy, any previous history, drug history, any specific allergies, sore throat, mouth ulcers, etc. It would be great if pictures would have been uploaded.

Patient's Query
Thank you doctor,
I got an injection and the shivering has come down. But, neither the rash nor the swelling. What should I do next?
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I would suggest observing the progression of the rash whether it is progressing or regressing in the next 48 hours. Please revert back with all the details I have asked you in the previous note. Get well soon.
