What Causes Itchy Red Rashes Under Breast And Groin After Being On Flu Shots?

3 days after receiving my flu shot I stated to break out with a nasty rash under my breast that was on Jan 25. I still have the rash witch is quite red and it is either itiching or burning. it is now under by tummy roll and has spread to my groin on the left side. Have try so many prescription, over the counter creams and powders but nothing seems to help I am 71 and I have a friend who is 72 and she had the same thing happen to her since Oct. Her doctor said it would probably have to run the course of the vacinne.

HI
Well come to HCM
If the rash erupt exactly after the short of flu vaccine then the rash could be due to this only wait for some time and this would be fine for sure and no need to have any medicine for, this is nothing to worry, everything would be fine, take care.
