A member asked:
My 15 y/o son ate a ghost pepper at school a few days ago and now has a skin rash that seems to be spreading. can these be related?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be: Any food can cause an allergic reaction. But so can strep or other germs. Get this checked tomorrow or the next day to find out and be sure. Of course, if he has lip swelling, trouble breathing, high fevers, dizziness or anything else scary get him to an ER.
