What Causes Rash On Neck, Chest That Appears As Small Brown Spots?
I have a rash on my neck and chest that appears as small brown spots. It is also accompanied by a small breakout to the side of my nose and bumps on the back of my neck. I first experienced this a few weeks ago when I got sick with a severely painful throat but the rash began to go away. Suddenly, it has reappered but also on my neck and with much greater intensity. The only other thing that has recently changed that may somehow be the cause is my diet. Do you have any idea what could be causing this?
