What Causes Splotchy Rash On Thigh Spreading To Other Thigh?

Appears to be allergic reaction.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for asking.
I am Dr. Prakash HM and I will be answering your query.
Based on your query, my opinion is as follows:
1. It appears to be secondary to allergy, possibly due to new puppy.
2. Secondary to dehydration due to allergy, you seem to have the symptoms of tiredness. For sore throat, do salt water gargling.
3. You might need to stay away from the puppy and all items, puppy came in contact with for sometime, till symptoms subside.
4. Take antihistamine like cetrizine. Local at rash site, apply calamine lotion. Hope there is no bleeding anywhere or blood in urine.
5. If symptoms increase, you will require steroid injections and you might have breathing difficulties and you would need to go to ER.
At present, take plenty of fluids, avoid puppy, take antihistamine and apply calamine lotion.
Hope it helps.
Any further queries, happy to help again.

Might need additional antibiotics.
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for asking again.
It seems you have already a viral fever, which has presented with features of upper respiratory tract infection.
As you are already on antihistamine, nasal secretions and sore throat are less.
Continue paracetamol along with salt water gargling. Additionally steam inhalation and lozenges will help. Do all twice a day.
If fever and sore throat, has not reduced since a week, amoxycillin and clavulonic acid antibiotic need to be started.
Continue with good hydration and nutrition.
For rashes, its not related to respiratory allergy. Other cause needs to be identified and application of calamine lotion can be done in mean time.
For medication, you will require prescription from your doctor.
Get a complete hemogram once to check for anemia and evaluation of viral or allergic evaluation.
Hope it helps.
