Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am experiencing a skin rash that i believe is a food allergy It started friday . I have had one other allergic reaction to a medication a few years ago and got a body rash much like this one . I believe this came from a mixed drink that contained berries . Its a red itchy rash that moves around , mainly on my arms sides and tops of my legs . My palms and feet also itch bbut no rash . My throat feels like i have a knot in it . I started taking benedryl as i am without insurance at the moment so cannot afford a dr visit . Is there anything else i can do to relieve the rash or speed up recovery ?
