Could Intake Of Z-pack For Cold Cause Small, Blister And Pimple Like Bumps On Back Of Thigh With Itching And Burning?
I have a cluster of small blister-pimple looking bumps on the back of my thigh. They burn & itch slightly ... do you know what they could be? A little over a month ago I took a z-pack for a cold and then again a week ago. Not sure if it could be relates.

Hi,
Dermatologic conditions are hard to discuss without seeing them. but medicines do not go specifically to the thigh so a medicine a month ago isn't going to cause one small rash a month later. And some local contact in the area or an insect bite is more likely to cause a localized skin problem.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
