My husband gets this every time he gets a cold, gp has said it is just a symptom of the virus. It looks like patchy sunburn. Hope this helps

ive noticed recently that alit of people on here post worries about blood poisioning the thing is this is a medical emergency you wouldnt be thinking yiu had it a doctor would ve telling you that you have it while lying in hospital very ill

theres lots of reasons why this happens overheating reacton to foods being anxious and many more theres skin cooling treatments in health spas that can prevent this sort of thing

this happens to me on nights out if its really warm and im tipsy quiet anoying actyally

Two you would be sooo sick you'd be dialling 911 and not be here posting.
Basically you'd have a crazy high or super low temperture and you'd rapidly get worse.
On the plus side its pretty treatable too a friend of mine had it and she got to hospital and was fine in the end.
