Dear Friend.

Your rashes appear to be allergic.

It would be helpful if you let me know a few details.

For how long you have these rashes?
Is the any itching?
Are they persistent or come and go?
Have you taken any new drugs recently?

An antihistaminic such as Cetrizine for 5 days would be helpful.

Please get back with the above details.

Sincerely

Dr Kiran
