When to Seek Immediate Medical Attention

If you develop difficulty breathing or swelling of your face, lips, tongue, or throat, seek immediate medical attention. This could indicate a severe allergic reaction.

Similarly, go to the emergency room if you experience a sudden drop in blood pressure or faintness accompanied by a rash. These symptoms suggest a serious reaction requiring prompt medical intervention.

Also, seek immediate medical care if your rash is accompanied by widespread blistering, severe itching, or significant pain. These can signify a serious skin reaction needing urgent treatment.

If you notice signs of infection, such as increased redness, swelling, pus, or warmth around the rash, consult a doctor immediately. Prompt treatment can prevent complications.

Finally, consult your doctor if the rash doesn’t improve or worsens despite discontinuing doxycycline. They can assess the situation and provide appropriate guidance.
