Hello,

Rapidly spreading rash in a person who is using antibiotics (medication) with stinging sensation indicates possibility of drug allergy.

In my opinion it will be appropriate to see a doctor.

I hope this answers you. Feel free to write back to me if you have more questions.

Regards,
Dr. Ashok Kumar, Psychiatrist
