I recently moved to a hilly region. For the past 4 days, I have developed large red rashes mostly on my limbs and some on my stomach. Initially red, some rashes developed pus, and after 2 days, some turned magenta, especially after wearing jeans all day. In my locality, there are many insects, including large mosquitoes. My blood test report shows: Hemoglobin: 14.7 Polymorphs (Poly): 72 Lymphocytes: 21 ESR: 10 Other parameters: Normal Please advise what might be causing these rashes and the next steps or treatment.

Likely allergic or insect bite reaction. No sign of serious infection in CBC. Consult dermatologist if rash worsens or spreads.

I am suffering from a very minor fever-like tendency for about a week. It goes away with PCM and sometimes without taking it. The temperature is very minor and gives a normal reading, but I feel very inactive because of it. I did my routine health check up 2 weeks ago and the blood report was quite normal. I do not know what has caused this problem?

Hi. From Monday onwards my fever has been fluctuating a lot, sometimes 104 and sometimes 99. I am having body and joint pain in my legs. I have a swollen tonsillar lymph node, but it does not hurt. I went to the hospital and they say it is viral fever. My blood results show low lymphocytes, high polymorphs, and high ESR. Can anyone please explain what my report and condition imply?
