Brief Answer:
Kelflex can give you rash

Detailed Answer:
Hello

Thanks for the query

Keflex can cause a rash, it is one of the side effects.
I usually prescribe tab avil once in the morning and night for three days and calamine lotion morning and night for the rash
Bladder infection cannot give you the rash, it is because of the antibiotic. I recommend that you stop using it and seek help from your doctor for a switch over to another antibiotic like levofloxacin

I hope I was of help, if you have any further queries please get back to me
