Welcome to Healthcare magic
Fever headache with body rash could also occur with viral fevers such as Chicken pox,but i would advice you to do a lab test heamogram to assess the total leucocyte count and platelet count to rule out dengue fever which can also cause the above mentioned complains.
Also total leucocyte counts can help to diagnose a viral fever such as chicken pox as count decreases in viral fever.
Do refer to a general physician with lab reports.
Thanks
