What Causes Cough And Congestion Along With Rashes On Arms And Legs?
I have been sick off and on since June 2nd. I have been taking otcm since then with little to no relief. Lots of coughing with green mucus. Yesterday I woke up with a rash that covers most of my legs and arms. It looks red in the light and then in a non lighted room it looks like a white, blotchy color. It seems to be getting worse. What is the cause of this and should I be alarmed?

Hello,
You may have an allergy with anything that you use example medicine, food, soap, the weather etc. Find the rash trigger and you can try antihistamine medicine. It might not need treatment. Usually go away in a few days or weeks, even if you do not get treated. You can try antihistamines if not better go to see your doctor.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
