Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
I have red spots on my chest for the last two weeks. They are not itching, but I am worried about that. Is this some sort of rash or just chest acne? Should I be worried? Please help.
Hi,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I have read your query in detail and viewed the attached pictures (attachment removed to protect patient identity) and do understand your concern. If you did not have any fever or viral in the recent past, these are quite unlikely to be some associated rash. If these are only on the upper chest and not on other body areas like legs, arms, etc., you need not worry.

Patient's Query
Hi doctor,
Thank you for the reply.
I had a sore throat about a month ago for a couple of days. Is that related to this?
Hi,
Welcome back to icliniq.com.
I do not see any correlation with sore throat which you had about a month back.
