Suggest Medication For Fever And Red Spots On The Body
Hi, My son had a fever on Monday. He was fine yesterday until last night he started getting cranky. He's teeth are coming. Today he woke up with red spots on his face, behind ears & a little spots on his body? what can it be? he only drink half of his bottle.
Hi, thank you for posting your query here. From what you are describing,it seems like he is having Measles infection, with rash starting on his face and then spreading out. It is normal for kids to.be cranky, and eat or.drink.less than.usual. He may also.have a runny nose and cough with redness of the eyes. Give him paracetamol for the fever, and Vitamin A supplements ro speed up recovery. If he develops fast breathing or has trpuble breathing, then you should visit a doctor. Keep him in his room to avoid spreading the infection to others, and ensure that kids he has been in contact with get a measles or MMR shot. Hope this helps
