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 have had a red streak type rash on front of my neck off and on for at least 3 weeks. Often it is itchy and I tend to unknowingly scratch it. Now for about 6 days I ve had same type rash under both my eyes along with some flakey skin. Today I got a very sore throat and I ve had a dull headache off and on for a week or so. I m a very busy professional and consequently, tired.
