Hello,
Dry mouth usually caused due to reduced salivary flow.
I would advice you to get a thorough clinical evaluation done.
Red rashes can occur either due to pigmentation of skin due to exposure to heavy sunlight or due to side effect of medicines administered.
I would advice you to take plenty of fluids and fruits to keep yourself nourished.
Avoid exposure to heavy sunlight.
Please do visit a dermatologist for further reference.
Take care.
