What is the Valley Fever skin rash like?
Valley Fever can cause rashes that look several different ways. A common presentation is as painful or tender, slightly elevated red nodules or bumps, which may change color to bluish to brown and often occur on the legs, but may occur on the chest, arms and back. Another common form of rash is a red raised rash which may have blisters or somewhat pointed pimple-like bumps. It’s important to note that other diseases may also cause rashes that look the same. The names of the rashes are erythema nodosum (the most common) and erythema multiforme.
