Thanks for posting the qwery.
This seems like drug allergy which might be due the medications you would have taken to contol diarrhoea and vomiting.
Firstly you stop the medications and replace with different group of medications after consulting a physician.
Treatment consists of oral anti allergic tablets like cetrizine with topical soothing agents like calamine etc to treat the rash.
