Possible drug rxn: This could be a drug reaction. The skin biopsy should clarify this. If this turns out to be a reaction to Augmentin, (amoxicillin and clavulanate) there are alternatives that our physician can prescribe to prevent UTIs.

Possible: Drug eruptions. Other causes of pain in leg like infection nlood clot in legs need to be ruled out.
