Hello and welcome... Rashes has a list i.of causes .. Yours could be the allergy BUT the pattern of its spread is not suggestive of allergy and its pointing to some kind of infection. What ki d of rash is this? You better should go to a general physician to examine you and he will advise you some tests like blood test etc. You should go to the doctor without wasting any time so early treatment could be possible.. Hope you'd understand...
Ok see you in good health.. Bye
