Pneumonia rash
Common Questions and Answers about Pneumonia rash
pneumonia
I had been sick with a high fever and coughing for about a week and one night developed a rash that covered my entire body so I went to the ER. There they said that it was hives and they also took a chest xray because I was coughing uncontrollably. The xray came back and I was diagnosed with pneumonia. I was given an antibiotic (7 days) and prednizone (5 days) and benedryl as needed (which I took every night for about 4 nights when the hives started to flare up.
Would carinii pneumonia present itself with just a minor cough and congestion and no fever, no rash or other symptoms. In other words is this type of pneumonia something that is more severe? I have not had an exposure to someone with HIV, but I have allowed myself to receive oral sex on occasion from guys that I did not know their HIV status.
I just wanted to update this...spoke to my docs office this morning, they forgot to call but she had put a note in my chart about it. She said following pneumonia this is normal and can occur for several weeks after. As long as I am not having any worsening symptoms and am showing improvement, even if it is slow, that this is normal. If I have a fever or any change or worsening in symptoms I should go in to see her immediately. So I am relieved.
ve also been experiencing random nausea, diarrhea, feeling rather confused and mentally foggy, very strange emotionally, and breaking out in a rash. This comes after being treated for pneumonia last month. I went to the doctor yesterday where they ran some blood tests, which mostly came back normal. I was just wondering if anyone knows if blood tests can come back normal even if someone is sick.
Hello,
It looks like a viral exanthematous rash or hives due to viral rash. Take some antihistaminic like Benadryl or claritin. You can also apply calamine lotion on the rash. It will help in soothing the skin. A mild corticosteroid cream will also help.
If the symptoms persist then please get an evaluation done form a dermatologist. Also get her examined from a pediatrician and get her cough and other chest symptoms evaluated because it can be a bacterial infection causing pneumonia as well.
I have a skin rash that started on my arms and scalp as being just really itchy. Then, it spread over my back as tiny bumps clustered together in patches, the top of my chest, under my bra in the back only and on my side of my thigh.
What part of you didn't have a risk is it that you aren't understanding? We're done here.....
As of now he has been fever free for 4 days, running a low grade about 100.6 in the evenings. He is on antibiotics for an ear infection & I'm thinking that's the reason for no high temp. They have said he's anemia levels are abnormal as well. At this point they said that it started with lots of bacteria & viral infections then turned into mycroplasma pneumonia & then mono, the rash has come from taking amoxacyllian with mono..
I have had mycoplasma pneumonia for almost 3 months now- complete with a rash that comes and goes, insane chest pain, body aches.. They finally diagnosed me two weeks ago and I took a Z pack and felt decent finally but only for a few days, Im getting worse once again and I'm SO over this. What ended up working for you??
area North and south closer to the center of my chest approaching useless man nipple, and it is dissipating. No rash, no swelling, the pain is worst in the morning and gets better through the day. My first thought is shingles without rash, I am willing to let it go and avoid med expense for tests of a 3 to 5 pain scale malady that occurs, then dissipates, but the fact it keeps reoccurring with in line with the previous has got me wondering if this is something I need to treat.
Recently (months, not weeks), on a visit to my PCP, I showed my doctor a picture of a weird rash I had been getting on my face for years. I had never thought to take a picture, but when she looked at it the first thing she said was "have you been tested for lupus?"
First things first:
I have had migraines since i was in fourth grade, and I have always had a love/hate relationship with the sun and break out in hives/feel ill after spending time outside in the warmer months.
re asking, but my doctor had me get a flu shot and a pneumonia shot when I started treating (since the interferon could degrade my ability to fight infection). Also, I was in the hospital and they tried to give me a pneumonia shot every time I was there and they knew I had hcv and was treating. So, obviously, you would ask your doc - but I think it must be something they encourage.
Back in May 2007, I had protected sex with CSW. Next day, I had pink eye and one week later 2 canker sores on soft palate followed by swollen armpits. One month later I had thrush. Six week HIV test negative. Went to Dr. who said I have a upper respiratory infection. Three months later, swollen armpits became pneumonia. Took azithromycin, cleared my lungs & pneumonia, but upper body caught on fire. Developed small bumps on forearms. Got tested for Syphillis, Gono, Chlymadia, HSV 1 & 2.
He did test positive for pneumonia in March, and the second set of x-rays (after 10 days of treatment ) showed that the pneumonia was still present but improving. Besides a low grade fever he tends to get a rash that covers his entire stomach, back, neck and parts of his arms and legs. He also has broken blood vessels that are all over his neck- appearing and then going away.
Not just the usual sweat but one I have to change my clothes two times a nigbt(this happened for like a week)
* I started feeling so cold especially in the morning. Doctor said it was pneumonia + a cough that lasted for three weeks plus.
*and the rashes I ve never have in my whole life spreaded all over my arms and back as well as my breast region.
* I also had serious muscle ache. Serious that my mom had to help me massage it.
I get a viral infection in my nose kind of like cold sores since I was 18. At 23 I developed consistent migraines. At 24 I developed a rash, cellulitis, on my ring finger. At 29 I had pneumonia.
I’m now 30 and continually have: worsening nail fungus, spread to over half of my toes. I’m constantly cold. Most of the piercings I’ve received have gotten infected. I go through serious waves of depression and anxiety. My enamel is horribly weak.
My son has been diagnos with bronco pneumonia. Given medication. on the 2nd day in hospital swellon anckles and feet appear. On the next morning swollen subside then red spots appear, then almost all joints swelled up again and he's in pain then small bruises on his feet appeared then gone. All test were done and seems all clear or nothing suspicious result. After 4 days again appeared and disappear on the next day.
I noticed last week that his cheeks were flushed but I figured it was from the fever but now that the fever is gone, the rash on his face noticable. The rash looks like little bumps but all together in a bright red circle with some of the little red bumps are on his nose and lips. The rash is also dry and flaky. Then last night he started crying that his arm hurt and I noticed a little brown spot on it so I circled it to keep an eye on it.
Usually I notice later that day or the following day I develop small, rash-like red dots on my chest. Originally I thought it might be food allergy, but the same thing happens if I laugh a lot. I have a history of very mild seasonal allergies, no asthma. Have never smoked. Do have GERD. I have had untreated pneumonia once and usually develop bronchitis with seasonal colds. My doctor didn't know what was wrong, so she just prescribed me an inhaler, and it didn't help.
