I had tonsillitis about three weeks ago. I went to the doctor and was prescribed a Z pack. After finishing the antibiotics (about three weeks ago) I developed a rash on my face, neck, chest, and arms. The rash looks like lots of little red bumps. Sometimes they itch, but sometimes they do not. Do I need to see a doctor about this? It doesn t seem to be getting better.
The rash could be probably a drug induced rash or a viral exanthem. Yes, I request you to consult your Dermatologist to confirm the diagnosis as the treatment differs for both the conditions.
