He has been taking an over-the-counter flu medication without any symptomatic relief. Yesterday he developed a diffuse rash made up of red, slightly raked bumps. It covers his whole body and he says that it must be an allergic reaction to the flu medication. He has no history of allergies and takes no other medications, and his only medical problem in the past was being treated for goverhoea approximately 2 years ago. On further questioning, he denies dysuria or penile discharge. He denies any genital lesions now but says that he had a "sore" on his penis few months ago that never really hurt and went away on its own after a few weeks so he didn't think much about it.
