About two weeks ago I broke out in a petechiae rash all over my stomach, arms, legs, back; the nurse on the phone had me go into the ER and the doctor was concerned. However bloodwork(cbc & liver tests) came back fine, so they sent me home. Now it s been two weeks and the rash hasn t subsided. Should I expect this, or should it have gone away by now? Thanks! Im a 27 year old female, generally very healthy and no other problems except I ve had intermittent pain in my ribs over the last year or so(kept thinking I was just sleeping wrong until the nurse just told me otherwise). I have an appointment for the pain and to follow up with the petechaie this Friday. My curiousity is just getting the best of me! Thanks for your help!
Hello, The symptoms seem to be related to an allergic reaction. I suggest using Cetirizine. I also suggest using Calamine lotion for local application at the rash area. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
