What Causes Tiny Red Dots From Neck To Chest Along With Cold?
Hello. I need to know if i need to do something about a problem im having. I ve had a cold for a month now and it s just followed up by a bad cough and runny nose. After the past 5 days now i ve been getting a rash with tiny little red dot from the bottom of my neck down to my chest at the end of the past where my bra wire sits. Its the same lenth down on my back and my shoulders. The little dots are all over those area s. Over those days the dots become more and gets more red. When i touch the red dots it takes a long time for the blood to come back to the surface. I have a feeling it s something bad or not. I don t know

Hi
I have gone through your complaints and it seems to be viral rash associated with cold and cough.
No need to worry.
Apply calamine lotion on the affected areas twice daily.
