Does anyone have small rashes, which do not disappear for 1 week or more???
I was not sure if they were insect bites or rashes and I still don't know for sure. I used "AFter Bite", Benadryl cream and even Neosporin but none of them seem to help at all. The size and deep red-coloring don't seem to disappear and I never ever had anything like this before.
I am not sure it could be related to Enbrel or something totally different. I take Enbrel on my thigh not on abdomen...
The only real way to determine what it is would be to see a Doc. I could guess at possibilities like purpura, petichiae or even shingles, but without seeing it, I can't even begin to venture a reasonable guess. I hope whatever this is fades soon.
Definitely give your doctor a call especially with it being there for longer than a week. I had always heard about shingles, but honestly with everything else I had been struggling with never thought much about it, but about a month ago I went through a real bad episode that opened my eyes. I learned a lot from my doctor and now have something else to look out. Sometimes the battle seems neverending.....
