What Causes Bubbly Red Rash All Over The Face And Body?
Hi, my boyfriend has a bubbly looking red rash all over his face, ears, neck, forearms, and partially on his back; I was guessing it might be shingles or hives but I'm not a doctor. He's tried Benadryl since yesterday and it's getting worse; any ideas?

Hello,
The symptoms seem to be related to shingles.
I suggest using Acyclovir cream for local application.
I also suggest Cetirizine relieve the symptoms.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
