What Causes Red Rashes With Breathlessness?

I am 13 and in the past 2 days I have gotten a red painless rash all over my arms and on my thighs. Today I was laying down and suddenly I found it difficult to breath. That lasted for about two hours. now i feel my heartbeat in my palms. What is wrong with me?!?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Red rashes on body, sudden onset breathing difficulty, palpitations etc are suggestive of allergic reaction more.
So you will need antihistamine (levocetrizine or fexofenadine) and anti allergic (montelukast) drugs.
Inhaled bronchodilators (formoterol or salmeterol) and inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) (budesonide or fluticasone) are needed for breathing difficulty.
So consult doctor and discuss all these.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
