Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi,

I have gone through your complaints and rash is very common after a viral infection. Most likely you had a viral rash. It will take few days to disappear. You can apply Calamine lotion on the affected areas twice daily for few days.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
