What Is The Treatment For Itchy Rashes All Over The Body?

Hi I m a male 33 years old. Today after eating a tuna fish sandwich I broke out in a rash all over my body. My heartbeat was very fast I could feel it beating in my head and everything got really hot. I was slightly itchy, so I took some Benadryl. The rash went away for a little while even though I was very tired. Then the rash came back. I feel like there s a weight on my chest now even though most of my symptoms are gone and I m very tired. What could this be?

Hello! Thank you for writing! Is this the first time it happens when you eat tuna fish? It seems like an allergic reaction toward it? Do you have other signs, like a sowllen of the mouth, tongue or palatum? Do you have difficulty in breathing? If the airways are touched from this reaction, it might excplain the heaviness in your chest( if it means like it is like a difficulty of breathing?) Because when someone gets an allergic reaction it depends on the grades that it shows. It can touch your airway and the situation may be serious. When you have an allergic reaction better go to the ER to keep the situation under control if it shows in a severe condition. If it's due to Tuna fish you mustn't eat it. Better visit a doctor to have a total excamination of your health. Thank you. Best regards.
