Chest rash

[braveheart]

Have anybody experienced it?
I 've had very small red dots since yesterday.
They are in the upper chest near my neck.

Any other symptoms other than the rash? swelling of any kind?

This rush has been vanishing slowly. It is almost gone.
No swelling and no other symptoms.
I think it was a sort of allergic reaction.

Next time I see gastroenterologist I will tell this happened.

Thanks everyone for your replies.

Braveheart - are you on any medications?

Hmm....go figure! I just experienced this. It is on my stomach area from right above my bellybutton flanking both sides and ending right underneath the breast line. They don't seem to be raised. I had started itching there a little while ago and I looked and my skin looked dry.

I took a shower and I'm not sure if the heat made it more blotchy. So, I put Aveeno on it. could it be from the Imuran, you think? It's as porter described it. Splotchy red kind of like heat rash. Do you think it could be because we went to a concert yesterday that was really hot and we were sweating, but I wasn't able to take a shower until today. Perhaps the sweat irritated it? I hope it's not an allergic reaction!
