Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Rashes On Body And Diarrhea After Swimming In A Lake?
My son went to camp all last week. He swam in a lake everyday. He has a pimply chicken pox like rash pretty much all over and has had diarrhea at least 3 to 4 times per day since Thursday. He is on colcrys for familial mediterranean fever. Is this just a reaction to the lake or since the colcrys is an immune suppressant do you think it could be something else? He was vaccinated against chicken pox. Thank you.
After going through your medical query I understand your concern and I would like to tell you that most likely lake water has this effect on your body and you need anti allergic with Diarrhea medication. Kindly visit ER for urgent care
Hopefully this information will guide you properly.
Kind Regards Dr Bhanu Partap
