I'm sorry to hear that you're still experiencing itching and reddish patches despite taking medication for 10 days. Itching with redness on the neck and face can have various causes, including allergic reactions, infections, or skin conditions like eczema or dermatitis.
Since you mentioned taking Cefadrox (an antibiotic) for 10 days, it suggests an attempt to treat a possible bacterial infection. However, the return of symptoms indicates that the cause might not be bacterial, or the infection may need a different treatment approach.
Here are some steps you can consider:
If you experience severe symptoms like difficulty breathing, swelling of the face or throat, or high fever, seek emergency medical care immediately.
Please schedule an appointment with a dermatologist to get a thorough evaluation and tailored treatment plan.To narrow down potential causes, we will need some more information.I understand you're dealing with itching and redness on your neck and face, even after taking medicine. Could you please provide your age and gender?
