Hello,
The sudden rash can be due to allergic rash means some form of dermatitis.
But in case of certain bacterial infection as well rash can develop. So you need to get physically examined and CBC should be done for further work up.
Levocetirizine can be prescribed until than. So you should consult the nearby doctor immediately.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
