What Is Rubella?
5. Rash
It is often when the rash appears that it will be revealed that the patient has more than just a cold or the flu. The rash itself is usually pink in color, and will usually start on the patient’s face. From there, the rash can spread to the patient’s arms, legs, and face. The rash will typically be itchy, and it will usually last for around 3 days.
When the rash disappears, it will do so in the same order that it appeared, and it will usually leave behind no marks. The patient will remain contagious for around 2 weeks after the rash has disappeared, further contributing to the contagious nature of the disease.
