Reddish Blotchy Rash On The Chest After Drinking Alcohol. Normal Blood Pressure. What Could Be The Cause?
About a year ago i started getting a red blotchy rash on my chest everytime i get upset angry or nervous. It never use to happen so i dont know why it is now. It happens wen i drink too just 1 drink. But after an appointment today i noticed my face was like it too which again is new. My blood pressure is normal so what could it be?
In your history you have not mentioned your treatment ?Have you been on some prescription antibiotics?
There are medicines of Imidazole group such as Metronidazole//anti diarhhoea drugs such as Furazolidone//antifungals such as Griseofulvins//Disulfiram-also called antabuse ,the residues of all these interact with alcohol to produce Cutaneous rashes as well as systemic reactions.
Pls drink lots of water and the immunocomplexes will get washed away.
Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Best regards.,
