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.
I had a 24 hour flu like bug, We d-Thurs. I m feeling so much better today. I ve been able to eat dinner last night , yogurt for breakfast & a smoothie for lunch. After taking a hot bath I noticed a light red rash on both sides of my stomach. I m getting ready to go to a conference & wondered if I m still contagious?
Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms could be related to the hot shower and local vasodilation. There is no reason to worry about, as long as you do not feel shortness of breath or dizziness.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
