Skin irritation post COVID treatment
I have skin irritations on my hand , legs and back from 1 week. Recently I was hospitalised for COVID treatment, it's been 1 month that I am out of hospital. During COVID treatment I was given high dosage tablets because of lung infection. Can you please confirm if this skin irritation is because of COVID medication or something else. I feel small pimple sort of when I touch it and very itchy but no marks or redness as such. Please suggest what is the remedy?
