[|Human|] I just started taking prednisone yesterday for a viral infection. No fever. Sore throat and enlarged lymph nodes on the back of my neck. Last night I noticed red spots on my face but I thought I might just be getting an acne breakout. Now they are on my neck, arms, chest and back. They don t really itch and are not very close together. I ve taken prednisone before- about 6 months ago I had mono. Am I having an allergic reaction to it or is it probably something else?
[|AI|]  Hello, I read carefully your query and understand your concern. Based on the fact that you are already using prednisone, it is very unlikely to be an allergic reaction. In my opinion it can be a viral rash. I suggest using Calamine lotion for local application. If the rash continues, you should see a dermatologist for further evaluation. Hope my answer was helpful. If you have further queries feel free to contact me again. Kind regards!  Chat Doctor.
