Hi.
Thanks for choosing HCM.
It seems like a rash which can be present in viral fevers-like measles / rubella etc. Many other conditions can also cause this. It may be due to some of the drugs you are giving her.
Apply some calamine lotion & watch for a day or two. If it persists then see a doctor.
However it is harmless & self limiting.
