Suggest Treatment For Rashes Throughout Body And Tightness In Chest

Yesterday I had a rash form all over my body, starting on my thighs but spreading over my chest and arms. I went to the doctor who gave me two injections. This morning the rash has gone but I have a tightness in my chest. Like a weight is pressing on my sternum. What could it be?

Hi,Good Evening,Thanks for your query.
I studied your query with all the details and understood your health concerns.
-In my opinion-the cause of the pressure tightness in chest- with rashes on the body-is due to Acute pressure due to Angioedema and asthma with it.
Treatment of the tightness in the chest-
-Inj-norepinenphrine drip by titrated doses.
-Inj-Dexamethasone.
and supprotive care by ER physician.
-Hope this would help you to plan the treatment with your doctor team.
Wishing you early recovery.
Wellcome to HCM for further query in this regard.
