HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The glandular fever is likely the cause of your rash. Viral infections can sometimes be associated with an rash called a viral exanthem.
When your infection completely resolves, the rash should also resolve either at the same time or soon after.
The use of anti histamines , which would be available over the counter, would help with the itching.
I hope this helps
