What Should I Do For The Red Bumps On The Whole Body Except For The Stomach And Back Due To Which I Am Extremely Nauseous, Very Tired And Irritated?

I woke up yesterday morning with a few red bumps on my lips & hands let it go for a few hours and my whole body was covered but my mid- stomach& back and my lower legs. I've been treated for allergic reaction since I was a kid due to contact with certain soaps & etc.. I get a steroid & Benadryl next day it usually cleared right up. This time I Went to the doctor this and told her the only things I've done differenly at home is bought a new scented dryer sheet and I used rubbling alcohol on my face the night before as well as using hydrogen peroxide as a oral rinse. She than prescribed me prendisone for it for a week. 40mg -2days than 30mg 2 days and so on till it's gone. It's been 24 hours and my rash isn't any better & seems worse, I'm extremely, nauseous & very tired and irritable is this normal if not what should I do???

Hi, rash following contact with a new antigen is presumed to be allergic. you should at least have responded to steroid by now. since there is no response, the possibility of other causes of rash like a viral rash should be considered. watch out if you develop fever or pains. if that happens, revisit your doctor. Hope this helped.
