Hello
Thank You for contacting HCM.
There is a possibility that rash is because of insect bite. It usually resolves itself in few days. If i were your treating doctor then i would have advised cetirizine one at night for 5 days.
Report to hospital if:
> Condition remain same after 2-3 days
> Any unusual symptom appears
> Condition deteriorates.
> There is difficulty in breathing.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow
up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us.
Wishing you good health.
