What Causes Rash On The Middle Of Chest Area After Having Benadryl?
An allergic rash not responding to Benadryl
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Well, it appears that the rash is of allergic origin as there is a history of it being responded to cortisone injection and as cleared by the doctor.
a detailed history about the appearance of rash, detailed information about its progression and if associated Itching and fever etc… needs to be considered. Here you can provide me with the information an if possible an image of rash would help.
Though the presentation is consistent with a rash of allergic origin
I suggest your treating doctor to change the antihistamine to tab hydroxizine three times a day, instead of Benadryl as I some people may respond variably to different drugs. It may cause lead to moderate sedation.
I would need to know, if you have had such rash before as well. It is associated with itching and how rapidly has it progressed.
Thank you
