Dermatologist,  's  Response
Hello,
Thanks for the query,
She might be suffering from measles.
It is a viral infection.
Just give her anti pyretics to control fever.
Rash will disappear on its own.
If there is any ulceration or fever doesnt go down you must meet a doctor.
A photograph would have helped me in giving a closer diagnosis.
Please meet a dermatologist for exact diagnosis.
Let me know if you have any other doubt.
