What Is The Reason For Spreading Rash, Sore Throat And Cold?

My husband visited a doctor today, concerned about rash that has spread from a few bumps on neck and has spread onto chest, buttock and genitals. He developed a sore throat and cold like symptoms one week ago and then rash appeared, pimple like whitehead hard bumps. Skin feels itchy but rash is not. The doctor just believes it is an allergic reaction. Any thoughts?

Thanks for query on HCM.
Most likely it is due to some allergic reaction.
You have to be watchful for triggering factor.
It usually occurs due to exposure to chemical,irritants,perfumes,body lotion,soap,some diet.
White head bumps indicate development bacterial infection.
Take levocetrizine to subside allergic reaction proper antibiotic like azithromycin to subside infection.
Apply calamine lotion on rashes and antibiotic,mild steroid containing cream on bumps.
Keep in touch with your doctor for proper diagnosis and medical management.
