Allergic reaction due to medicine

2019-02-12 15:36:25
My son had a severe allergic reaction due to a medicine he took for sudden pain in leg joints. The reaction looks like red dots all over his legs while are also painful at times. It's more like severe case of mosquito bites. There are no purple dots. The doctor upon consultation indicated possibility of vasculitis but the blood report stated otherwise. His rheumatoid factor is 8.5.

Well, If itz a qualified skin specialist trust his clinical acumen more than the reports. The reports may not be always positive. Indeed to prove it 100% you will need to do a skin biopsy. Which wont be appropriate for a resolving scenario.
