Brief Answer:
Regarding skin rashes

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome to ask a doctor service. I have gone through your query and viewed the image.

In the image I can see dry, red, scaly patches. This seems like an eczematous skin condition which could be either endogenous or a drug reaction. I suggest you to use a moisturizer regularly. In addition I would suggest you to take an oral antihistamine e.g cetirizine 10mg tablet once a day for symptomatic relief from itching..For widespread rashes like these, the best course of action would be some specific oral treatment like either oral steroids or oral immunosuppressive. I request you to kindly upload a few more images of other affected areas, si that I can get a sense of severity of your skin condition.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if you need any more assistance

Brief Answer:
Regarding skin rash

Detailed Answer:
Hi. I have viewed the images.
I would like to keep a few possibilities and would like you to investigate for them e.g KOH scrapping to rule out fungal infection, VDRL or RPR to rule out possibility of Syphilis and a Complete Blood Count (CBC). If these possibilities are ruled out then we can think of either eczematous dermatitis or a drug induced eruption or a viral exanthema. I suggest you to visit a doctor in your vicinity in order to evaluate for these possibilities. In the mean time you can put a moisturizer regularly and take an oral antihistamine e.g cetirizine 10mg tablet.
Take care
