A member asked:

I was diagnosed with bronchitis last week and now have blotchy rash all over stomach and chest?

Blotchy rash?: Could it be a reaction to one of the medications you were given for your bronchitis? We’re you given an antibiotic? This should be re-evaluated by your prescribing doctor, but that would be my first thought.

Mgt: If you were prescribed an antibiotic, you may be experiencing an allergic reaction. Among other causes, a viral associated rash. I would suggest seeing your PCP. A virtual consult may be helpful. A test dose of an antihistamine can be used to see if there is improvement.
