Can Amoxicillin Cause Sudden Outburst Of Itchy, Flaky Rashes On Neck And Legs?

Hi, I have a red rash on my neck and it's very itchy and bumpy looking. It seems I've develop 3 different types of rashes in different areas- another on my arms almost look like I burn myself, then around my hair line and legs dry flaky. I've tried exzema lotion , Benadryl, gel, aloe gel but nothing is helping it burns when I put stuff on it.
I was sick 2 weeks ago and was taking amoxicillin. Can this be outburst of medication? Not sure what to take to feel better. Your help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for asking the query,

No this could not be due to the use of amoxicillin.
This could be due to any other allergies.
Will suggest you to get a thorough checkup done.

Take care!
