Brief Answer:
Is this rash itchy? Looks like an allergy!
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have reviewed the attached image. This rash looks like urticaria which is typical of an allergy. Given her recent travel history, this might be likely. However, it is important to find out whether it itches or not as most cases or urticaria would normally do.
For now, I suggest that she should take Benadryl to help relief the symptoms. Let me know if there is something further you want us to talk about and keep me updated about their progress.
