Skin rashes
I have developed itchy red rashes all over my face which are not simply rashes,it seems to be very tiny bullous type eruption.It is the second time I am facing it.I figured out that I take combiflam more often,even on the day my face started developing itchiness(9th march 10pm) I took that medicine in afternoon around 3pm.I felt anxious to consult a doctor with this swollen face Previously My upper lip got swollen this time today when I woke up.I am an MBBS 2nd year student and here we have only one choice ,which is to go to our cllg's hospital(there is no other skin specialist neraby)where I'm afraid to go.Please help me.🥲

Hey Young Tbdoc
Firstly, have a little faith in your own establishment hospital Dermatologist as these are the docs moulding you.
Can always take a second opinion here or anywhere else.
Secondly, this is an Acute Urticaria nee Hypersensitivity issue.
Take 2 Fexofenadine tabs at a time post a small snack and drink lots of water (hydrate well)
Avoid taking any NSAID and write down all the stuff you are allergic to and make a small laminated card and carry this with you going forward.

From your history, this appears more like a drug-related allergic reaction (urticaria/angioedema) possibly triggered by Combiflam (ibuprofen + paracetamol). The itching, tiny eruptions, facial swelling, and lip swelling suggest a hypersensitivity reaction.
Next Steps
✔️ Avoid taking Combiflam or similar NSAIDs for now
✔️ If swelling of lips, face, breathing difficulty, or worsening rash occurs, please visit the hospital/ER immediately as allergic reactions can sometimes progress
✔️ You can also take an online consultation with me so I can guide you further regarding medication and precautions.
Helpful Tip
Drug allergies can recur if the same medicine is taken again, so it’s important to note this drug as a possible trigger and avoid self-medication in the future.
