Cause For Rash On Both Sides Of Face Along With Itching?
out of the blue I have a rash on both sides of my face has circular shapes and colored inside circle.itchy.ijust had hernia surgery 3 weeks ago..rash is spotty.some of the rash doesn t have circles.not sure if the percoset has anything to do with this?i have looked at pictures on line and cant seem to match it up.
Judging from the description it seems to be an Urticarial drug rash.
If i was your treating doctor i would have put you on oral antihistamines like cetrizine or loratadine once or twice daily for a week.
Depending on the severity of rash you might require a shot of hydrocortisone OR Pheniramine which can be repeated every 6 hours.
Topical soothing lotion e.g calamine will help sooth the itching and discomfort associated with it.
regards
