Q: I just came down with a rash on the back of my head, behind and around (a bit over) my ears. It's almost the same on both sides, Bumpy and a bit itchy. Is this an allergy or heat rash??
Hi there
What have you been sick in bed with? What does your doctor say? Did your rash develop after your other illness? Is there any way that your medications are causing this rash?
I really think you need to discuss your symptoms with your doctor who knows your medical history. Even if we could guess what this was...your doctor is the person who can help you treat it.
In the meantime here is information about heat rash.
I hope you figure out what is causing these symptoms. Thank you for your question.
