Hi thanks for using HCM.
The rash may be due inflamation or fever that has followed sore throat episode. Since no problem with the rash now, need not to be worry.But for the safer side get examined by your doctor and get done complete haemogram, Liver function test, Clotting time and bleeding time to rule out any other cause.
Hope I answered your question. Wish you good health.
