Suggest Remedy For Rashes All Over The Body
I have an increasing rash that started yesterday. Started around my waist and legs. Now it seems to be on my chest and neck. Even my face is starting to get red and itch. Tonight, it feels like I have heart burn. This usually never happens to me. I ve had allergy tests before, mostly just allergic to a few grasses, no food allergies that I m aware. I ve done nothing out of the ordinary the past few days or wore any new or different clothes.

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of severe rash all over the body which seems to be due to allergic reaction of body. It is due to poor and compromised immunity of body as well. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to to apply cold compresses. You should take antihistamine like benadryl and keep yourself hydrated by drinking lot of fluid. you should avoid touching or pricking rashes on body. If condition doesn't get improve or get worse then consult allergy specialist for proper examination and treatment . Doctor may treat with epinephrine (adrenaline), either self-injected or administered by a doctor. Usually, this injection will stop the development of a more severe allergic reaction.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
