Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

The sympotsm seemto be related to an allergic reaction to Imuran.
I suggest to take an antihistamine to relieve the symptoms.
I also suggest to use a steroid cream for local application.
If the symptoms continue,I suggest to consult your doctor about an alternative treatment.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
