Rash after acupuncture session, what to do?

I haven't seen that: Happen before. Is it hives or an itchy rash - if yes then Benadryl (diphenhydramine) might help.

See a dermatologist: Also you should consider the reason for going to accupuncture and think about possible benefits. It is really a placebo, of very limited true benefits. Do you wish to continue spending money and getting a rash???
