What Causes Red Rashes All Over The Body Of A Child?
My daughter is 4 and broke out in a rash on Sunday. Little red dots mostly on her torso with a very low grade fever and it doesn t itch. Over the past few days it has spread down her arms and legs and seems to come and go. Today I noticed it on her tongue. It looks like a strawberry. Should I take her to the dr?
The following are few causes of rash with fever: 1) Chicken pox 2) Measles 3) Rubella 4) Scarlet fever 5) Fifth disease 6) Hand foot and mouth disease 7) Impetigo 8) Scabies
Kindly consult a physician or a dermatologist as soon as possible. Your child requires in person physical examination of rash.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Pallavi M., Anesthesiologist
