Suggest Treatment For Red Rashes In Chest, Arms And Back

I have a red rash on chest, arms, and back. It does not burn, itch, or hurt. It is not affected by sunlight, meaning it doesn t get better or worse. I am on a 50k unit Vitamin D supplement, taken every other week, plus micardis and Crestor. Could this be a drug interaction? Or something harmless?

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction.

I suggest using Antihistamines such as Cetirizine.

I also suggest using Hydrocortisone cream for local application.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
