Hello,

I read carefully your query and understand your concern.

Your symptoms seem to be related to a viral rash.
I recommend using a mild steroid cream for local application such as Calamine lotion.
I also suggest using treatment for the flu symptoms.

Hope my answer was helpful.

If you have further queries feel free to contact me again.

Kind regards!
