Hello,
The rash is in concern with the altered coagulation parameters due to Warfarin usually.
I recommend to undertake a fresh work up of the prothrombin time and discuss regarding the dose of the Warfarin with your consultant.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
