Hello,
You are suffering from rashes on the whole body with redness in the eyes since 3 days. The rashes were itchy and your lips are dry. There are many factors that can cause itchy rash like drug reaction(side effect of medication), skin allergies, poison ivy, ringworm, scabies, STI, shingles, dermatitis, etc.
You are suggested to take non sedating antihistamine to get rid of rash if it is due to allergy. Apply ointment clotrimazole on the area affected, it will help to reduce itching and rash due to fungal infection. Get physically examined and diagnosed, in case of scabies, apply ointment Ascabiol or Permethrin lotion for relief (apply it on the affected area, leave it for 20 minutes, then wash).
However, you are suggested to get clinically examined by a dermatologist. Get STD tests done to detect STI, if positive you will be accordingly treated with antivirals/antibiotics. You can apply Genticyn or Ciplox eye drops, 2-3 drops in the affected eye for relieve. If it does not subside get examined by an eye specialist.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
