What Causes Raised Rashes On The Torso While On Treatment For Bronchitis?
My son was diagnosed with bronchitis. He was put on pack 250mg for five days. I did have a recent pack prescription with two left over that I also gave him on days 6 and 7. He does have a raised rash. It is on his upper torso and arms. It does it h. It is not red. Just raised bumps. I gave him a benedryl. He is 22years old.
Viral illnesses can be associated with a rash, it is called viral exanthem.
This is the possible cause of the rash that he is noticing.It is not dangerous and normally resolves within a few days on its own. Benadryl would help if the rash is as a result of an allergy,in that case, there would usually be associated itching, though symptoms can vary from one person to the next.
I hope this helps
