Hello and thank you to for your question.
Rashes are a known side effect of Prolia. You really need to discuss this with your physician. You may need some blood testing to make sure that there is no other cause of the rash. It also depends upon how long ago the Prolia was given. If it was given months ago that is different than if you just got the dose more recently.
Regards
