What Causes Red Bumps With Cold?

I am a 28 year old female. Last week I appeared to have a head cold. I had a sore throat, cough, slight fever and runny nose. That went away and I continued to be very tired. Then I was tired one day and I had diarrhea. Towards the end of my head cold I began to see red bumps on my stomach. I thought I might be allergic to the cold medicine that I was taking so I stopped taking that on Wednesday. Now I still have those red, pimple like bumps on my stomach and back now. What do you think I have?

Hello
You were suffering from cold with runny nose cough with slight fever and all these symptoms were due to allergy .
Diarrhea may be due to some sort of side effect of allergy medicine ( or medicine took for cold).
Now main question is red bumps over abdomen and back . When such patient visit I usually prescribe them to take monteleukast+ fexofenadine ( combo pack ) tablet once or twice in day for 2-3 days only.

As these bumps are due to allergy ( hives type ) , no need of any tension.
Good luck.
