Prednisone Rash?

I have episodic clusters and have been through 3 Medrol Dosepaks...I started to develop a skin rash (itchy bumps) in my armpits, belt-line, buttcrack (pardon my candor) and behind my knees.
Is this typical? Anyone else experience these side effects?
Thanks!

Haven't experienced anything other than moonface from roids.
Do you take anything else?

But the blows they have just a little more
Space in-between them
Gonna take a breath and try again.

I haven't personally had these symptoms but my Mother was years on cortisone and she got rashes constantly.
One of the side effects in some people. Maybe ask your doc to lower the dosage?
Good luck Jas
