Suggest Remedy For Itchy Red Rash On Neck, Back And Abdomen
My skin has become extremely itchy the last 24 hours especially the back of the neck area. I seem to have a visible rash on my neck, back, stomach, chest, arms and the palms of my hands. My glands in my neck are also swollen for the last 5 days and sometimes it hurts to swallow.

Hello and welcome.
A skin rash and swollen glands in the neck/throat can point towards a few conditions and I shall go ahead and list a few of them out for you. Tonsillitis, contact dermatitis, viral pharyngitis, varicella infection, Lymes disease, etc.
I would thus urge you to visit a physician for a general checkup and confirm/rule out some worrying conditions on the list of suspected causes.
Best wishes.
