One month ago, small red rashes appeared on my hand, spreading to my entire body within three days. Some of them swell and turn yellow. The ones on my back become painful when it's warm. Can you describe the texture and appearance of the rashes in more detail? Are they flat or raised? Do they have any specific pattern or shape? Have you recently come into contact with any new substances, such as chemicals, medications, or plants, that could have triggered this reaction? Have you experienced any other symptoms, such as itching, pain, fever, or fatigue, along with the appearance of these rashes?

I have been battling a virus for a week now. My symptoms include a severe cough, especially at night, which causes me to lose my breath. I am taking Robitussin, which helps somewhat. My eyes are red, itchy, and watery, often sticking together in the morning. How long have you had the cough? Is it constant throughout the day or does it come and go? Is it a dry cough or a wet cough? Any tightness in your chest? How long have you been using Robitussin? How old are you? Anything else in your medical history you think the Doctor should know?

I can hear my pulse or throbbing in my right ear when laying down. My ear is clogged, and I was lightly hit on the head with a bamboo stick in November. What could be causing this? It feels like a pumping sensation throughout the right side of my head.
