What Could Be The Reason For Having Itchy Rashes On My Right Arm And Breast?
Hi! I had the flu a couple weeks ago.. Soon after, I had a rash on my right arm ( very itchy, small red bumps) and under my right breast. They are now fading, but I still get 1 or 2 new ones, on my stomach, wrist, right hand, and a new one on my left palm, yesterday. I have no fever, cough. Actually feel very well. I am on advair, as my asthma tends to kick up when I get a cold ,flu, or sinus problems. That;s under control, so taking myself off advair. I have never had a reaction like this on advair before. Could it be a reaction, or could it be from the flu. The rash I mean?? Thanks!

Hello,
I read carefully your query and understand your concern.
The rush seem to be related to the viral infection.
I suggest using steroid cream for a local application such as Betametasone cream
If you feel itching you may use an antihistamine such as Loratadine 10 mg daily.
Hope my answer was helpful.
If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.
Kind regards!
