Back rash: If the eruption is only one.side of your back, is in a line distribution,and especially if it was preceded by a dull ache for several days it could be a shingles infection( herpes zoster). Otherwise, insect bites or an allergic reaction are possibilities. I recommend consulting your physician or a dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment. If it's shingles, it's important to get early treatment.
