Hi
You seem to have developed viral rash .
Such a skin rash can occur during any viral illness like cough cold or any other body infection.
It can present with development of red itchy skin lesions anywhere over the body .
Oral antihistamines can be given to control the rash .
The skin rash tends to subside along with the viral illness .
