Hi XXXXXX,
Thanks for writing in.
The rashes which come and go can be urticaria/papular urticaria/cholinergic urticaria etc.
Do the rashes go away on its own?
Are they well defined?
Are the rashes raised like hives?Are they itchy/painful?
For how much time they remain?
On what drugs your father is now?
Can you upload the photos of the rashes?
If you can upload the photos of the affected area(arms ) ,it would be good to predict the condition.
You have a feature to upload the reports / image by yourself at the right side of the query page, please utilize that so that I can answer your queries better.” Alternatively, you may mail me at YYYY@YYYY with subject as “Attention to Dr. Sudarshan”.
