Hiv Rash

An HIV rash is a skin condition that may occur in individuals who are infected with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). It typically presents as a red, itchy rash that can appear on various body parts. The rash is often maculopapular, consisting of flat, red spots that may become raised. It is considered one of the early symptoms of HIV infection, but not everyone with HIV develops this rash. It can be accompanied by other symptoms such as fever, fatigue, and sore throat.
