What Causes Joint Pain And Rashes On The Legs And Arms?

I developed a rash on my legs and arms 2 days ago. At first I saw it on my legs and thought it was razor burn. Then It developed on my arms. The rash was not itchy or raised and has subsided. I am having severe pain in all of my joints that is quite debilitating. Especially in my hands and knees. I am also getting over a chest cold.

General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hello,

The rash could be of viral infection, however, we should rule out possible Lyme rash.

So, to me, better get a good physical examination by your primary physician and run a few lab tests to determine the right diagnosis and treatment strategy.

Wish fast recovery.
