What Is Pityriasis Rosea?
4. Rash
The rash that comes with pityriasis rosea will typically begin with a single herald patch somewhere in the body. From a few days to several weeks after the herald patch first appears, you will also start noticing other patches developing on the body. These spots will be scaly and smaller than the herald patch is.
These spots will eventually cover a large area of the body. This rash can also be extremely itchy to the point where it is unbearable. It is important that the patient tries to resist scratching the rash too much, no matter irresistible it may be.
