Noticed a rash on the top of my hands today(little red bumps) but i didnt touch anything that should cause a rash. steven-johnson syndrome?

Erythema Multiforme: It's highly unlikely to be EM or Stevens-Johnson syndrome. Rashes can occur for all sort of reasons - contact dermatitis, atopic dermatitis, viral exanthums, mites (scabies)…the list goes on. To diagnose the rash, it really needs to be seen -not something that can be done in this format. If it is troubling you, have your doctor take a look at it.
