Summary
A Reddit user in r/LongCovid developed a rash in 2021, after a COVID infection. They were told it was eczema, prickly heat and shingles, and it went away after about four months; they had been on antibiotics, steroids, antivirals and antihistamines at the same time. It returned in early 2023 after a bad sinus and ear infection and cough; diluted manuka honey left them feeling amazing two hours later and they skipped Benadryl that day.

They say too little about how ill they were at each step to draw it on the severity scale, so the steps are listed as they describe them. Dates are when they posted.
