Started yesterday . Now today she is playing and the rash is still there and maybe even worse. Could something serious happen? Oh..

Hi,
The rash could most probably due to an adverse reaction to drug. But, there are other causes for similar rash such as viral exanthema, miliaria, etc. So, I recommend you to visit your dermatologist for undergoing proper examination and for further management.
