Have Small Non Itchy Bumps On Chest. Had Food Allergy. Took Benadryl. HIV Symptoms?
I have been having a non-itchy rash that is small little bumps on a very small part of my chest. After fifteen minutes, it goes away. It's been happening for two days. A few weeks ago I got a food allergy all over my chest (doctor diagnosis) and went a way after three days of Benadryl. I had unprotected sex 2 years ago. Would this be HIV? Been under extreme stress and anxiety the last week or two. Thank you.

Hi,
Welcome to HCM.
Non itchy rash over chest appear and vanish within 15 minutes over chest is not at all common early presentation in HIV disease. Is not related to HIV.
Anyhow, as you had an unprotected sex 2 years back, it is better to have HIV test done and rule out HIV. That will relieve unnecessary tension.
