Brief Answer:
Seems like hypersensitivity reaction
Detailed Answer:
Hello again
Thanks for writing back
I have seen the pictures
It seems like a hypersensitivity reaction of skin not related to HIV
I would recommend you take antihistamine like allegra(fexofenadine) for three days once a day preferably at night apply calamine lotion for symptomatic relief.
Also suggest to do absolute eosinophil count (AEC) which aids in diagnosis.
Hope this answers your query.
