Noticed Itchy Rashes All Over Body And Getting Burning Sensation. Should I Consult A Doctor?

Thanks for posting your query.
The symptoms you have described are likely to be related to a generalised viral illness which is commonly associated with such generalised rash and joint pains.
These types of viral syndromes typically last from as little as 3 days up to sometimes 4 to 6 weeks. I would advise that you support your body with good hydration, adequate sleep, a well-balanced diet and a moderate exercise regimen. Exercise is actually good for the immune system which is why I suggest it here. In addition you can supplement your diet with some Vitamin C - 1000 mg daily and consider drinking some immune boost type of tea such as Echinacea which is readily available at most supermarkets. You can also take acetaminophen round the clock for the symptomatic relief.
I expect your symptoms to gradually level off and improve over the next week or two. In the event that this does not occur, I suggest you visit with your primary physician for a complete physical exam and possibly some blood work as well. In the meantime, try not to worry about this and focus on maintaining good health as I have recommended with diet, fluid intake and exercise as well as adequate sleep (7-9 hours per night).
I hope this answers your query.
In case you have additional questions or doubts, you can forward them to me, and I shall be glad to help you out.
Please accept my answer in case you do not have further queries.
Wishing you good health.
Regards.
Dr. Praveen Tayal.


Thanks for writing again.
The symptoms you have are not likely to be due to oral pills or changes in the hormonal balance. Since you have taken these earlier also, such a reaction does not seem likely.
Hope my answer is helpful.
