Allergic reaction possible.
Detailed Answer:
Hello dear, welcome to Ask a doctor service.
I read your query and here is my advice.
I see the photo you attached and I think it is an allergic reaction to a food or substance you recently had contact with.
I think you should do a prednisolone injection and take a citerizine tablet.
Also you should stop taking the food or substance that you suspect may have caused it.
Keep yourself under observations.
If the rash doesn't get better and is also acompained by swelling in lips and face go to ER.
Hope I have answered the question.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
