Multiple Rashes On Body, Looks Like Shingles, Spreading In Nature. What Kind Of Rash Is This?
I have multiple rashes on my body and they are not hives, the look like shingles but don't hurt at all. I first noticed them a week ago on my bottom; I did not pay attention to it because I thought that it was only a heat rash but tonight I noticed that it has spread and worsen, and also is now on both of my arms; What could this rash be?

HI
Thank for asking to HCM
Such kind of rashes is more common in viral infection waite for few days if it is viral infection then will go away and if it is not the viral infection then you will have be examined, but before that you can try some anti allergic medicine and the second generation antihistamine ( Levocetrizine ) would be best try this I think it will be lright no need to worry hace nice day.
