Hi
Thanks for posting on HCM
Food poisoning may rather manifest with digestive symptoms like diarhea, vomiting, indigestion,... The rashes may not be caused by food poisoning. It may be caused by skin infection, irritation or allergy. I will suggest you try the following:
-Bathing with antiseptic soap or solution like dermobacter
-Take an antihistamine like benadryl
If symptoms persist, you see the Dermatologist for evaluation.
Hope this will help
Best regards
