What Causes Rashes On The Torso And Diarrhea?
My 34 yo son has a measle like rash on his torso. Sone areas have oval like rings. He is also complaining of diarrhea. Although he has never has a shell fish allergy ,he recently ate calamari and thinks this may be the cause. He also has diarrhea. Any thoughts?

welcome to hcm ...
in measles there must be skin lesions as red spots plus fever plus runny nose or cough plus red eyes ...diarrhea is a rare thing
most probably the cause of skin lesions plus diarrhea is due to food problem
please give tab levocetrizine 5 mg two times
tab pentprazole 40 mg two times ..
if diarrhea is less the child needs only adequate fluid intake
wait for 2 or 3 days symptoms will subside
if you have any further query then you can come back to hcm i will definitely help you
