Symptom #7: Rash

Rashes on our skin can be caused by a number of things, many of which are quite harmless, such as irritating insect bites or contact with something we are allergic to. Sometimes, though, it can be an indicator of an illness and rashes are a common symptom of valley fever.

The rash associated with this disease is called Erythema Nodosum, and it manifests itself by way of painful red bumps. They are most likely to be found on the lower legs but they can appear anywhere on the body. A rash can be a symptom of numerous causes, some life-threatening, so if symptoms are severe and/or persistent, medical advice should be sought.
